User reviews
"The beach is amazing, although it can be a bit pricey. There's a shack right on the beach with incredibly friendly and prompt service. I'd suggest going for the pizza and salad, as they're better than the other options. The prices are a little high considering the quality, but you're essentially paying for the prime location and convenience."
JN Anderson
"The beach's location is simply amazing, with the sand just centimeters away from your toes. However, the food leaves something to be desired."
