This beach is a cozy public spot with no beach bars, only showers. It's perfect for those who enjoy a more secluded atmosphere and bringing their own equipment. Additionally, the beach is easily accessible.

This beach is definitely my top pick in the vicinity. It's not too big, and there aren't too many people around, so you can truly unwind and soak up the sun without feeling cramped. Plus, they have convenient shower facilities on site. The only issue I encountered was a leaky pipe, which is a shame since it's wasting precious freshwater. Hopefully, they'll have it fixed soon.

We visited an excellent public beach that was not very crowded. The place was very peaceful and had a beautiful view. I even went snorkeling around the cliffs. The water was calm and perfect for swimming as there were no strong waves. However, it's important to note that there are many sea urchins around the cliffs, so it's best to wear protective footwear while strolling. Other than that, this place is a hidden gem.
