The town may be a bit run-down, but the beach is quite nice. You'll have to drive past the river and tower to the end of the road, where there's plenty of parking. It's a 5-10 minute walk down to the beach. The nudist area is on the right-hand side. There's also a beach cafe and toilets.

The beach was stunning, and the crashing waves were a soothing sight on a breezy day. There was plenty of parking about 500m away, and a few toilets close to the shore. For those looking for a sweet treat, the ice cream and fruit slushy van was a great option - the mango slushy and coconut ice cream were especially delicious. Highly recommended!

I'm a fan of admiring the great outdoors. The sea is crystal clear and the shoreline is littered with a few pebbles. It's a pleasant sight, but nothing too special.

This place is the perfect spot to take a break and enjoy the sun! With free parking just a short walk away, it's easy to get to this beautiful beach. It's a great place to bring the family, with a van selling delicious Italian ice creams nearby. Relax and enjoy the sun at this hot beach!
