This beach has a fantastic atmosphere. Occasionally, the waves can be big, so it's important to keep an eye on children. However, there are diligent lifeguards on duty. The food can be a bit expensive, so it's a good idea to bring your own snacks or be willing to pay for the amazing views, ample space, and delightful soft sand.
