What to do in Aston Bay beach? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Aston Bay beach welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

This is a fantastic spot, the waves are gentle and it's perfect for immersing oneself in the ocean. The beach is quite lengthy, which provides a sense of seclusion. Furthermore, the location is superb, with numerous BnB's lining the shoreline.

If you're seeking a tranquil spot to unwind, this beach is fantastic! It's not overly crowded and there's only one nearby shop, but it boasts a lovely lagoon and lifeguards are present during peak holiday periods.
