The pick of the seafront tavernas ranged along Milina’s one through road. Its brightly painted tables stand right on the quayside, so only the occasional kitten squeezes in between you and the sea. Besides well-priced fresh fish specials, plus meat and pasta dishes, they have plenty of veggie options. Breakfast features omelettes and fresh orange juice. Cheerful service, open late.

Three simple, spotless rooms share a nice sea-facing terrace above the restaurant itself; they rent for around €30.
