Plajă bună în general, un pic mică, cu o piscină de mare pe loc care este grozavă. Salvamarii sunt de serviciu, precum și cabinetele de schimb și toaletele. Doar adu-ți propria mâncare dacă plănuiești să stai mai mult, nu sunt restaurante pe plaja efectivă, în afară de câțiva vânzători de înghețată

Overall good beach, a bit small with a tidal pool onsite which is great. Lifeguards on duty as well as changerooms and toilets. Just bring your own food if you plan on staying longer, there are no restaurants on the actual beach other than some Ice cream vendors

Există o parcare mică cu un drum abrupt care duce la plajă. O plajă frumoasă, stâncoasă, protejită de plase de rechini și salvamari, dar nu la fel de sigură pentru înot ca Willard. Piscina de mare adiacentă este mare și plăcută pentru înot, mai ales la maree înaltă, când valurile se izbesc de stânci și intră în piscină. Plaja și facilitățile de toalete erau destul de curate, dar întreaga zonă din jurul piscinei are nevoie de o îmbunătățire. Dușurile exterioare au fost grozave. Odată ce ne-am obișnuit cu ciudații care umblau pe lângă piscină, a fost o experiență destul de plăcută.

There is a small parking area with a steep path leading down to the beach. A beautiful, rocky beach protected by shark nets and lifeguards, but not as safe for swimming as Willard. The adjacent tidal pool is large and fun to swim in, especially at high tide when the waves splash onto the rocks and into the pool. The beach and ablution facilities were quite clean, but the whole area around the pool is in need of an upgrade. The outside showers were great. Once we got used to the weirdos hanging around the pool, it was quite an enjoyable experience.
