User reviews
"I didn't have a good experience at the beach. The only thing I liked was the beach bar at one of the entrances, but it was quite pricey. The smell of stagnant water was overwhelming and there were sewers in the sand, along with huge stones and dirty sand. I didn't even bother to go for a swim and the walk wasn't pleasant either."
Sofia Cruz
"Tucked away in an urban area, providing a peaceful atmosphere. It has a restaurant with delicious and luxurious food, however the downside is that the beach has a lot of stones and gray sand, making it uncomfortable to lay on and too hot to enjoy even when the weather isn't that warm."
