This particular beach stands out from the rest as it offers free parking, which is a rarity these days. However, it is advisable to wear flip-flops as there are numerous shells scattered across the sandy shore. Apart from that, there are no major grievances to report, and I would definitely visit this beach again.

The beach offers a magnificent view of the sunrise and is perfect for a refreshing swim. Visitors can avail the convenience of bathroom and shower facilities. On the day of our visit, we were excited to witness the launch of the Artemis Rocket, but unfortunately, it was postponed until Saturday. Nonetheless, the beach experience was still worth it.

Looking for a chill spot to hang with your kin? Look no further than this beach, my friend. It's the perfect place to kick back and let the good vibes flow. Take a stroll at dusk and let the sand tickle your toes while the water laps at your feet. It's like a little slice of heaven on earth. And if you're feeling a bit overwhelmed, this is the place to be. Get some alone time and let your thoughts drift away with the tide. Trust me, your mind will thank you.
