"The beach was a pleasant expanse with a serene ambiance. Although we visited in April when the temperature was not particularly high, it still provided an excellent spot to unwind and enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings. We spent an hour dipping our toes in the water and soaking up the soothing atmosphere."
Becky R.
"I absolutely adored this beach! Although it can get a little breezy at times, the ocean is absolutely breathtaking. The water is crystal clear and an incredible shade of emerald green. Unlike many other beaches, you don't have to trek a long way to get to the deep water. Additionally, it's not very crowded during this time of year, which makes it even more charming. ♥️"
