User reviews
"The beach is absolutely stunning and it's not too crowded on weekdays. The facilities like the bar, toilets, and lifeguards are available from 12 onwards. I suggest always having a floaty for the younger children since the shoreline is quite steep and each step gets deeper. It's a good idea to bring something for shade as there isn't much shaded area."

"It's like a little slice of paradise. The scenery and the water are absolutely breathtaking. The only downside is that the parking area is quite limited, so if you arrive late, you'll have to park over a kilometer away to reach the beach."
