This beach is private and well-maintained, but there is a fee to enter. Visitors should be aware that outside food is not permitted, and there are no chairs, umbrellas, or street vendors available.

The beach is absolutely serene and stunning, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Unfortunately, the public restrooms are currently unavailable. The sandy shoreline is perfect for families with young children, as there are no sharp rocks or obstacles to worry about. It's recommended to bring a mat to avoid getting wet from the damp sand. Overall, it's a wonderful spot to relax and soak up some sun.
