The beach boasts stunning crystal-clear blue waters, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling. During our visit in October, parking was a breeze, but in the summer months, it's best to arrive early and consider parking in the municipal lot beyond the marina or on the street since most roadside spots are reserved for nearby vacation homes.

Contrary to what other reviewers have mentioned, this beach is not protected from the wind and as a result, sand is blowing around quite a bit.
