From our guide Andrea: "If you wanna spend one day to relax by the sea and to eat delicious fresh fish, the best place where to do it is a small beach (in Pedaso) and close to that a tiny elegant restaurant by the beach called Matepaya.  It is possible to arrange it spending the morning on the beach with the launch or afternoon till sunset time and the dinner.  Astonishing experience."
