The beach has beautiful sand, making it perfect for kids and fishing enthusiasts. While the place is good, it could benefit from additional amenities such as a market and a small square for children to play. Without these additions, it may become monotonous for those who live nearby. Overall, the beach is nice and enjoyable.
