User reviews
"Located in a peaceful area, however it can be incredibly crowded on weekends and holidays. There is a small shower, but it's not the best. There are family restaurants and bars around, but the food isn't always great. It's best to avoid this beach on busy days, as it can get very full. Otherwise, it's usually quite empty and tranquil."
Santiago Cardenas
"That place is the perfect spot to chill and unwind. It's an idyllic, cozy spot, ideal for families. It's a hot beach, with a fountain to cool your feet in and limited amenities."
