The beach is mostly covered in pebbles and offers stunning views from the top, making it a great spot for a walk.

6 Pleasant

The beach is conveniently located with a short concrete path leading directly from the parking area. It appears that camping in tents is permitted, as there were several campsites already set up. However, a downside is the lack of restroom facilities and the presence of many stones scattered among the beautiful white sand.

Nice little beach with limited parking. The pathway up the hill is muddy halfway, so it's not very safe to continue.

Do you have a large dog? Our Great Danes enjoy exploring the beach, water, and forest. The beach can be crowded with other dogs, so some owners of large breeds may prefer early mornings or weekdays between 1-2pm to have more space. Remember to clean up after your pets so we can all continue to enjoy our walks.
