Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 12 visitors · 2016–2026
Expect dark sand in shallow water
The sand underwater appears darker than typical island beaches, but the water itself is clean and clear.
Shallow, calm water for families
A sheltered cove keeps waves small and the water warm, with minimal undertow or rough conditions.
Visit on weekdays, not weekends
Sundays draw crowds, while weekday mornings and afternoons stay quiet and peaceful.
Bring your own shade and chairs
No beach chair or umbrella rentals exist, so pack a tent, blanket, or plan to sit under the palm trees.
Parking costs four dollars, card only
The gated lot charges four dollars but does not accept cash.
