In context.
A small, south-facing Mediterranean cove of pebbles and rock, with a seabed shelving gradually to sand — aquatic shoes recommended. Suited to calm-water swimming and snorkelling rather than board sports, with excellent water quality and rich rocky marine life. Unsupervised, with the nearest lifeguard post further along the coast (June-September). Smoking and dogs are banned; the cove sits within a protected marine park with anchoring restrictions.

Can 4Shor provide more accurate forecasts than my existing app?
