The beach service is wonderful and so is the food. Two chaises with thick cushy mattresses, one drink table and one 'parasol' aka umbrella will run you twenty Euros, and that's just the beginning. This is definitely NOT an inexpensive day, but is a truly delightful one worth every penny spent. And after a few glasses of wine it doesn't seem nearly as expensive, but note, please, it's a tad beyond a Rosies ribs lunch at Mullet.
There wasn't a blade of seaweed to be seen anywhere, the water is gentle and the only sounds beyond that of the waves gently kissing the shore, are the laughing children to be heard playing up and down the beach and the occasional background of all the different tongues this island attracts. It's very peaceful and totally enjoyable.
It was a lovely day and one I'd love to repeat again this trip but if not, we'll do an instant replay in December for sure.
And for those who asked elsewhere, this is definitely NOT a beach I'd be comfortable bringing a cooler to. That is what we paid at Orient, without the atmosphere you are describing---The food at Orient isn't inexpensive either--so it really sounds like a great option. Sorry we missed it---next time for sure.
