The beach is truly breathtaking and suitable for both young and old. My family and I had a fantastic time during our visit on the third day of EID EL ADHA. We even had the opportunity to grill our EID sheep meat, which was a delightful experience. It's recommended to arrive early in the morning as you'll have the freedom to choose your preferred spot and enjoy the beach to the fullest. After 12PM, the beach tends to get crowded, so it's best to arrive early.
