"The beach is an exceptional destination that boasts breathtaking vistas and an expansive area for your furry friend to stretch their legs. During my visit, I even had the pleasure of catching a glimpse of seals frolicking in the water. The amenities are top-notch, though I've heard rumors that they may not be available for much longer."

There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable.
