This beach is absolutely amazing! It's a hidden gem that only the locals seem to know about, so it's not crowded with tourists. Plus, the sand is a beautiful golden color.

The beach is stunning and well-maintained, but there is an admission fee and an additional charge to use the cabanas. Unfortunately, some guests play loud music, which can be disruptive. Overall, it's a great spot for a good time.

I really enjoy this beach. It's especially lovely to go in the mornings during the summer because it's very serene and calm. The restaurant is decent, too. Additionally, you have the option to bring your own chairs and towels or rent a cabana.

The beach had a pleasant view and the water was invitingly warm. However, the available space to lay down your towel was limited. Despite the presence of wooden canopies, we were unable to locate anyone to provide us with a mattress until we were leaving.
