The beach offers a picturesque scenery, although it is a popular public destination teeming with visitors. On the day of the holiday, the crowd seemed to have thinned down slightly compared to regular days.

The beach is really lovely with plenty of relaxing areas and dining options, most of which are run by young people. You can also find delicious food and drinks here. It's definitely worth stopping by to catch the sunset, but don't forget to bring a jacket!

A stunning location to unwind and relax alongside the ocean during the evening. The area is adorned with numerous food stalls that offer mouth-watering local grilled dishes and seafood. The site provides ample parking space for its guests, ensuring a stress-free visit. However, visitors should be cautious of fraudulent vendors who attempt to sell food to foreigners at inflated prices.
