User reviews
"This beach offers easy accessibility and is open to the public with no cost. It has ample space to accommodate a large number of individuals and features multiple beach volleyball courts as well as an outdoor gym. However, some drawbacks include litter and individuals smoking on the beach. Additionally, the water quality may be compromised due to the nearby river estuary."
