Magnificent and photogenic! There is a large caravan park nearby. The sandy beach yields a generous catch for those who are keen to hunt for shell fish. Also popular with local fishing enthusiasts.

Very nice lagoon, but very windy. Beach is nice very clean, even the public washrooms are well maintained.

It's truely amazing here. The town is sort of abandoned with 2 closed restaurants and a lot of empty houses. I spoke a local and he said even in summer it's not that populair. I don't get it because the beach is huge, the ocean is beautiful, the lagoon perfect for supping, fishing, rowing or whatever. There is a small cafe that is open by the way. Down near the parking spot near the beach.
