Currently, in the winter season, the beach appears to be quite tidy, although the temperature is lower compared to the summer months. Although the beach is relatively small, it still provides enough space for swimming. Despite the numerous boats in the vicinity, it is still considered safe for swimming. The water is tranquil and shallow, offering a delightful experience. 🙂
