This is a free central gravel parking area beside the water, with a sea view, nearby shops, restaurants and children’s play equipment. A sign states free parking from 08.00-22.00, while recent visitors also reported quiet overnight stays without prohibition signs. The ground is flat but full of potholes, there are no services, and occasional motorcycle noise was heard at night.

It is good for one night. There is a sign saying free parking from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., with another long explanation underneath. It says everyone is very welcome. Nowhere does it say that overnight stays are prohibited. It was a very quiet night. The area is full of potholes and holes in the road, which fill with water when it rains.Translating
There was no noise at night, and there are children’s play equipment and bins nearby. Close to shops. Very good place in town.Translating
A free parking lot in the center, with no services, on level gravel. It was almost empty when I arrived in the evening, and the night was quiet. Perfect for spending the night.Translating
Nice daytime spot, but nothing more!Translating
The sign clearly visible at the entrance says that parking is free there from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Beautiful view, directly by the water. A good starting point for exploring the town; overnight stays are probably not welcome here.Translating
The sign shown in the photo—8 a.m. to 10 p.m.—is no longer there. Fine place with an excellent view. Good for visiting the town, shopping centers and restaurants. Overnight stays are fine too.Translating
Large gravel parking lot. Good for visiting the town. We only stayed during the day, but it would probably also be good for the night.Translating
We stayed here for one night and explored the blue city. Parking directly by the water, with a fantastic view. Five motorhomes were there with us. Somewhat noisy at night because motorcyclists used the adjacent road. Free parking, no prohibition signs. No bins. Perfectly fine for one night.Translating
