I visited the beach in the late afternoon, and made my way to the far end, which is designated for dog owners. The sun was setting, and I was treated to a beautiful and calming view of the ocean. The sand was soft and warm beneath my feet, and I could smell the salty sea air. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the moment. The beach had a peaceful atmosphere, and I felt a sense of tranquility wash over me. I could tell that this was a special place, and I'm glad I had the chance to experience it.

That place is the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. The long, black sand is inviting and the breakwaters make for a safe swimming experience. We had the whole beach to ourselves in the afternoon, making it a peaceful and serene experience.

This spot is a great for taking your pup for a stroll, but don't forget to grab the poop bag - the fines for leaving it behind are outrageous, and a tidy beach is appreciated by all.
