User reviews
"Picturesque setting, Quick and easy to get to, No charge for parking. Sand not as pristine as it could be"
Alejandro Castillo
"Perfect for children, but you'll want to make sure the water is low before you let them loose. Otherwise, you'll be stuck on the shore while they frolic in the waves."
