User reviews
"This beach is absolutely fantastic - it's clean, quiet, and not too crowded. The sand is a beautiful golden color, and the water is crystal clear. It's perfect for families with children because the water stays shallow for quite a distance, so you don't have to worry about them getting in too deep."
