9 Excellent

This beach is an absolute paradise for those who love kitesurfing, wingsurfing, or windsurfing, especially when the winds are blowing from the west. Even if you're not a watersports enthusiast, you can still enjoy the thrill of watching the action from the railway trail, the layby, or the benches near the kids playground. The beach is well-equipped with public restrooms located next to the car park, and they offer a stunning view of the football pitches. So, whether you're a pro or just a spectator, this beach is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a breathtaking coastal experience.

5 Tolerable

This beach is nothing to write home about, it's a bit of a gamble whether you'll have a good time or not. However, there is a silver lining - a playground for the little ones to enjoy.

8 Very good

The beach boasts crystal clear waters, making it an ideal destination for families with young children. However, it is worth noting that the sandy shores are dotted with numerous rocks, which may pose a slight inconvenience. Nonetheless, the beach remains a picturesque spot for a relaxing day trip.

4 Frustrating

The beach, while shallow, does offer some respite from the heat. The sight of little shells along the shore may provide some amusement, but the overall atmosphere is lackluster. The nearby playground is a small consolation for families seeking entertainment, but it is hardly a reason to visit. While there is plenty of parking available, the grassy areas for picnics are hardly worth mentioning. Overall, this beach is nothing to write home about.
