TL;DR
The sea entry is mixed: fine pebbles right at the shore, then a mostly sandy bottom with only occasional small stones further out — water shoes aren't necessary.
Underwater footage taken in calm weather shows fine pebbles right at the shoreline, then occasional small stones, followed by a mostly sandy seabed. You can walk in without water shoes.
Different videos of the same beach show different textures: one shows sand, another shows pebbles (not too fine), which is why travelers often ask what the actual sea entry is like.
There are video screenshots showing the beach right at the exit of the pedestrian underpass, including a shallow "kiddie pool" area near the shore.
