The beach is truly remarkable during high tide when the clear blue waters come in. It's a great place to enjoy with your furry friend as it is dog-friendly. However, the parking situation is not ideal and can be quite challenging.

The beach is a stunning heritage site that boasts numerous caves lining the river mouth. However, it is important to exercise caution when exploring the area alone, as there have been reports of robberies occurring in the vicinity of the bridge.

This destination is an extraordinary spot to bring your loved ones. It's currently secure for little ones to have fun in the river or ocean. However, it can get a tad gusty at times.

This tranquil beach is a hidden gem, requiring a leisurely stroll from the nearest parking spot to reach. However, the effort is well worth it, as this idyllic spot is perfect for spending countless hours basking in the sun and enjoying the serenity of the waves. To add to the adventure, we opted to rent kayaks and paddled to the beach from the old bridge, which made for an unforgettable experience.
