Verderosa Beach is a quaint, less frequented beach located slightly inside the city. Access to the beach is through stairs from the main road. The beach is characterized by its pebbly terrain and numerous stones in the water. Despite this, the beach offers an amazing view and is known for its crystal clear water, making it a popular spot for snorkeling. The marine life, although not very diverse, includes green fish, orange fish, vibrant blue micro fish, dab/olive flounders, silver fish, and crabs.
The beach is relatively small and has been reported to have some pollution issues. It is also important to note that there are a lot of sea urchins very close to the shore, so visitors are advised to be extremely careful.
In terms of amenities, there used to be a restaurant that provided sun beds, but it is now abandoned. There is a small, rough parking area close to the stairs that can accommodate about 3-4 cars. Boat rentals are available nearby, and there are several other beaches in close proximity. Despite its size and lack of certain amenities, Verderosa Beach is not typically crowded, offering a more peaceful beach experience.
Verderosa Beach amenities include parking.
Visitor reviews highlight the beach's tranquility and clear waters, ideal for snorkeling, as the most appreciated features. The beach's secluded location and less crowded nature also add to its charm. However, complaints are made about the beach being small, somewhat polluted, and not very well maintained.
