    Grab a quick bite and a coffee at Zomba. The menu features Egyptian and Middle Eastern dishes, and it is open late enough to fit your schedule.

    Zeytouna Beach

    Walk to Zeytouna Beach. This island spot is surrounded by lagoons and offers a flat coastline perfect for watching the sun dip toward the WSW.

    Zeytouna Beach

    Stay for the sunset. The light fades quickly here, so find a comfortable spot on the sand or near the beach services.

    Zia Amelia

    Head to Zia Amelia for dinner. This Italian restaurant is open until 23:00, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the meal and the live music that often plays on Wednesdays.

Local tip

The walk from Zeytouna Beach to the dining area takes some time, so leave the beach with enough buffer to reach dinner while it is still light or just as the evening cools down.
