User reviews
"The beach is well-maintained and offers all the amenities one could need. The shoreline is mostly sandy and has a gradual slope into the water, making it easy to enter. During peak season, the water is pleasantly warm. However, if the wind picks up from the north, the waves can become quite challenging."
Jaxon Riley
"Despite the unfortunate circumstances of large waves and a red flag, our visit to the beach was enjoyable. The beach boasts easy accessibility and a variety of beach bars and sunbed options without being overly crowded."
