Description
This area used to be home to sulphur mines, which were in operation from the 1890s to the late 1950s. A small settlement was built around the mining facilities. This included houses for the mine workers to live in, a restaurant, administrative offices, warehouses, power plants, and everything necessary to make the area self-sufficient. Over the decades, as bigger mines were discovered abroad, The mines eventually closed down, and the last person recorded living there was in 1971. If you like abandoned places, Thiorichia is a must-visit. You can see what is still standing from the mineworks and the workers’ houses. Tip – be extra careful if you are going inside caves or crumbling buildings.
The beach itself could be best described as yellow. There is no shade or canteen, so if you decide to stay here for a few hours, bring your own drinks, snacks and umbrella. Slide has been digitized.
