User reviews
"This beach is quite pleasant, and the staff are incredibly friendly. The sand is soft and there are plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas available for rent. At 6pm, there were only a few people around and the parking lot is huge. It's also a great spot for kids, as the water remains shallow for a long time."
Liam Kozma
"We visited this beach at the end of August and were delighted to find it practically deserted. It was very clean and the beach bar had great coffee and club sandwiches. We spent hours relaxing on the beach and the shallow waters were perfect for the kids to play in."
