What a magnificent location! The beach is absolutely charming, spotless and tranquil with a serene absence of any waves. It was an ideal place for children to relish the low tide. The beach is equipped with numerous amenities including restrooms, showers, parking, and several eateries and cafes. The water was perfect for swimming, not excessively chilly compared to other beaches in the vicinity.
