This vast and stunning beach offers a tranquil haven that can be enjoyed at any hour. The abundance of trees provides natural shade, while amenities such as restrooms, a snack bar, and a jogging promenade cater to all your needs. It's no wonder that locals flock here for picnics and sports activities. In my opinion, this beach is one of the most serene and expansive spots on the island, yet it remains underappreciated.

The beach located on the southern coast is a sight to behold. The sand is pure white and the water appears crystal clear, making it a perfect spot for a refreshing dip. The ambiance is serene, with only a handful of locals indulging in their leisure activities. The place offers ample shade and a few spots for picnicking and lunching, making it an ideal destination for a family getaway. However, it's worth noting that there is no designated swimming area, and the gusty winds might pick up at times.

I have come across very few beaches on this island that are wheelchair accessible, but this one stands out as being one of them. It offers plenty of parking space for cars, buses and taxis alike. It's a wonderful spot to spend a day, although I would advise against swimming during high tide as the current can be quite strong. However, the beach is protected by a reef, which makes it an excellent location for fishing enthusiasts.

This beach is simply delightful, and we highly recommend it. The long stretch of sand is perfect for a leisurely stroll or a day of lounging in the sun. During the weekends, the beach park is bustling with locals who come to picnic and enjoy the well-maintained facilities, including clean public restrooms and food stalls. While we didn't take a dip in the water or snorkel, we had a blast searching for seashells and other treasures with our trusty metal detector. It was amazing to discover all sorts of hidden gems, from beer caps and nails to coins. Plus, we were thrilled to see that the beach is now even cleaner than before.
