User reviews
"It's a peaceful spot to enjoy the scorching summer days with its inviting warm water. There are also dining options available and opportunities to rent boats, kayaks, and pedal boats. The only downside is that the beach could use a bit more cleaning, but it's understandable that some inconsiderate users are to blame for that."
Rodriguez
"The beach is easily accessible, but unfortunately, there is a significant amount of trash and dirt that has accumulated. Additionally, there is a problem with people playing loud music excessively. However, if you visit during off-peak hours, the bathroom facilities are quite nice."
