Good to know
Reported good with little kids

Plan for shallow, calm water with children
The first few meters are shallow, and breakwaters every 500 meters create calm conditions with minimal waves.
Visit November to March for solitude
Most businesses close in the off-season, but the beach becomes very quiet with ample parking and peaceful walking conditions.
Some shade is available
