It's a great beach to take your little ones to. In the afternoon, the beach gets shaded early. You can easily drop off passengers at the beach by car.

The beach is quite long and offers a great experience when the sea level is low. The public toilets are decent, but unfortunately, there are no restaurants or snack options available.
