This place is the perfect spot for surfers to get their thrills. They have boards for rent so you don't have to bring your own. The only thing that might be a bit of a hassle is the tunnel you have to pass through to get to the beach, but at least there's free parking once you get there. Plus, you can grab a drink at the beach bar and there's a lifeguard service to keep you safe.

A stunning sight, with sand and stones making up two distinct areas. It's very spacious, perfect for families, and the water is crystal clear.

This location is a great spot to chill and unwind! It's huge and there's free parking, but it gets full fast. You can rent surfboards and there's a spot to grab a bite and a cold drink. The locals are super friendly and the water is crystal clear and refreshingly cool. It's a must-see if you're in the area and it's not far from Gulpiyuri Beach.

That place may be large, but the sand is far from wonderful. Parking is available near the motorway, but it can be a bit of a hassle to get to.
