"The beach is perfect for families with children, as it is small and safe. Beyond the sandy shores lie rocky outcrops and secluded spots for those seeking peace and tranquility. If you prefer to avoid the sun, there are plenty of shaded areas to relax in, and a nearby forest offers an alternative escape from the heat."
