Before heading to the beach, it's best to confirm if swimming is permitted as large waves can pose a risk to swimmers. In such cases, lifeguards prohibit swimming. Nonetheless, the beach is well-maintained and offers amenities like showers and restrooms. We chose to camp on the beach during our stay.
