This popular destination boasts a bustling atmosphere with plenty of camels to be seen. The beach itself is truly breathtaking, though the service can be hit or miss. Despite this, it remains a well-known and beloved spot.

The beach is stunning, even though there are some algae present when the water is flowing. However, it is definitely worth visiting.

This beach boasts a lengthy stretch of sand and provides convenient amenities such as showers and restrooms. The area is well-maintained and tidy, and I thoroughly enjoyed spending a delightful afternoon here during the scorching summer weather.

The spot where the camel handlers operate is located here, and for a mere €2, you can take a brief ride and have your picture taken. It's definitely worth it, and a lot of fun.
