Easy access to the beach and the hermitage in the cliff is an easy walk as well. We were positively surprised that the waves were good enough for body boarding but we also saw lots of jellyfish. There is a food truck by the car park if you need supplies.

Too much construction. It was better when there was no parking and the original host was at the entrance.
