User reviews
"A beautiful beach located in a picturesque place. You can buy ice cream, drinks, beer and souvenirs. There is a rental shop for surfing equipment, which is a popular sport due to the large waves. But it's also great fun without a board!"
Kuba Bielecki
"It's a great view. There are several lifeguards. Some days it is very crowded. I'd suggest going there by bus because the road is a bit steep."
