Guide
Good to know
Some shade is available
Visitors mention trees, cliffs or umbrellas to get out of the sun.Mentioned by 5 visitors · 2017–2026
Come for sunsets and walks
The beach excels as a peaceful spot for sunset viewing and shoreline strolling rather than extended swimming.
Arrive by 10am on summer weekends
Parking fills quickly during peak season, and the small beach area becomes crowded by late morning.
Wear water shoes for entering
Rocks line the shallow entry zone before the sandy bottom begins, making bare feet uncomfortable.
Pack trash bags for cleanup
No trash cans exist on-site, so you must carry out everything you bring.
