"On a sunny day, all you need is a beach and a beach bar to enjoy a refreshing pint of cold beer and grab a bite to eat."

"The beach is absolutely stunning, offering breathtaking views. While there is sandy shoreline, there are also some rocky areas. Additionally, there is a snack cafe right on the beach, but unfortunately, only portable restrooms are available."
