Come for water sports, not swimming
The beach excels for kayaking, paddleboarding, and windsurfing in calm, flat waters with minimal waves or seaweed.
Visit on weekdays for solitude
Reviewers specifically recommend weekday visits to experience the beach as a peaceful paradise without crowds.
Arrive well before closing time
Officers begin asking visitors to leave around 4pm despite the official 5:30pm closing, and the gate entrance has long waits.
Plan a full morning or afternoon
Pack a picnic since dining options are limited to a few food trucks and stalls.
