User reviews
"The beach is a serene and calming place, but parking availability may vary depending on your entry point. It's an ideal spot for a nighttime gathering or simply taking in the sunset. However, swimming may not be recommended in certain areas. If you're fortunate, you may even spot some sea life and gather some beautiful shells."
