Ornos beach is situated in front of a small fishing village, 2,5 kilometres south of town and is the closest beach to the capital, with fine sand and sun beds and umbrellas for rent; it is a really beautiful beach but, unfortunately, it is often overcrowded.
A diving school as well as schools for sea-skiing and windsurfing are available on the beach; on the shore of the bay a huge hotel complex offers various restaurants and bars.
Ornos is reachable by local bus, frequently leaving from the capital.
