User reviews
"This beach is a great spot for camping, with its proximity to the beach. However, the restrooms and showers could use some updates as they are quite old-fashioned and made of wood. They are functional but tend to get dirty quickly due to the high number of visitors. Despite this, the owners provide excellent service and are very friendly."
Nathaniel Rivers
"The beach has a great location with stunning views. However, the campers next to us were loud and partying until 4 am with music, which was not unexpected as I had read similar complaints in other reviews."
