User reviews
"This location offers a great spot to relax and soak up the sun. It is well-sheltered from the ocean's waves and currents, and the views are stunning. During winter season, it's usually quite peaceful with few people around. There is a car park nearby, making it convenient to access. Unfortunately, there is no food available in the area."

"A great place to take your dog for a walk, just make sure to keep them on a leash and don't forget to clean up after them! Plus, the best part is that it's free to enter for the public!"
