Guide
Good to know
Sunrise and sunset viewing
The beach offers outstanding views of the water and skyline during golden hour light.
Swim only after 11am
Lifeguards begin duty at 11am, so swimming before then is not recommended by visitors.
Bring water shoes for entry
The beach has sharp rocks and pebbles throughout the sand, especially near the waterline.
Visit on weekday afternoons
Weekdays around 3pm offer a quiet experience, while weekends and hot summer days get crowded.
