Although the beach is undoubtedly beautiful, the amenities are unfortunately in a state of disrepair. It's best to avoid visiting this destination during the busy December holidays due to the overwhelming crowds and potential safety concerns.

The pristine condition of the beach is truly remarkable, and it's comforting to know that a dedicated rescue team is readily available at all times.

The beach seems to go on forever, offering plenty of space for parking and public restrooms. Sadly, the environment is not well-preserved, with pollution scattered throughout and the restrooms in disrepair. Additionally, there are no nearby shops for those who wish to spend an entire day basking in the sun.
