The beach is a lovely spot to take a leisurely walk, marvel at the vastness of the ocean, or sip on a cold beer while lounging on the sand. However, the beach can be quite crowded and bustling, making it difficult to find a parking spot. The sea is also quite tempestuous and blustery, making it challenging to take a dip. To make matters worse, beach cafes blast loud music, resulting in a cacophony of sounds that make it difficult to enjoy a peaceful conversation over a beer. All in all, the beach is a mixed bag of sorts, with its fair share of pros and cons.

Nestled along the coast lies an elongated stretch of sandy beach adorned with a glistening golden hue. The tranquil ambiance of this serene paradise is complimented by two charming cafes, perfect for indulging in a refreshing beverage or a delectable snack. During my visit in the latter half of August 2021, the beach was delightfully uncrowded, providing ample space for relaxation and tranquility. While the sea may have been a tad chilly and the winds a bit gusty on certain days, I found that it added to the overall charm and character of this picturesque location.

The beach is immaculate and stretches out for miles, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll. The added bonus of ample free parking and well-maintained restrooms only adds to the appeal. Moreover, there is no shortage of bars and eateries dotted along the coastline, offering a variety of refreshments and snacks.
