User reviews

"The beach is really nice and has some great features. There is parking available for both cars and bicycles. Additionally, there are supermarkets and restaurants nearby. On the beach, you can find snack options, toilets, and drinking water from taps. It's also a great beach for families with kids."

Sahil Verma

"The beach is very nice and spacious. The water is shallow, but pleasantly warm, making it less suitable for swimming. However, it is an ideal spot for a family or group outing. There aren't many stores nearby, so it's advisable to bring snacks and other necessities from home or purchase them in IJburg, which is a 10-minute walk from the beach."
