I visited this beach on Nov 21 and it truly felt like a little piece of paradise. If you enjoy sitting on a beach and immersing yourself in the sound of the waves, then this is the perfect spot for you. We were lucky enough to have the entire beach to ourselves for a significant amount of time, even in the mid-morning. However, please note that the only access to the beach is via a set of stairs - I counted around 100 steps in total, so it may not be the best option for those with limited mobility. I'm not sure if there is an alternative way to get there. Nevertheless, the effort is worth it as a peaceful and serene experience awaits you at the bottom. 🥰

I left a negative review in September, but it appears to have been removed by the local council. It seems that freedom of speech may not be highly valued in this area.

This beach is absolutely stunning, with various levels to explore on foot. It's teeming with natural beauty, and we even stumbled upon a glowing bug one night. It's hands down my top pick for a beach destination, and the kids adore it just as much.

The beach is perfect for taking your furry friend for a walk. It's not overly crowded, and although it was a bit breezy today, it was nice to be back by the sea. Additionally, the beach boasts beautiful golden sand.
