That place is 1.5km long and very wide, with a secure front line and a mix of gray shell sand and small stones. It's the perfect spot for crab pots! There are plenty of beach bars and a wide promenade, as well as several nearby parking lots (except for caravans and motorhomes). It's a very quiet and family-friendly beach, making it a great spot for a relaxing day out.

I absolutely adore this beach - it's made of pebbles, making it super easy to keep clean. The water was crystal clear and there's plenty of parking space available, making it incredibly easy to access.

The beach was massive, but the sand was dark and dirty-looking. It seemed like the area near the road had been flooded, which might explain why I wasn't too impressed with the surroundings. So, we decided to leave.
