"Beautiful location. The day I visited, it was quite breezy. Perfect stroll for families. Charming playground for kids. A few merry-go-rounds and delicious food options nearby, albeit a bit expensive. Complimentary restrooms available on one side. Paid parking lot conveniently located near the beach."
