Guide
Good to know
Bring cash for nearby services
The beach has showers but no restrooms, though bars and a supermarket are within walking distance of the train station.
Visit on weekdays or off-season
Summer weekends and late June bring crowds, while weekday visits and September offer solitude and clear water.
Water deepens immediately
The seafloor drops steeply within a few steps, so non-swimmers should stay in very shallow areas.
Sand varies after storms
Beach width and sand quality fluctuate significantly depending on recent weather, from nearly disappearing to generous coverage.
Check water conditions beforehand
Water clarity varies by day and season; strong waves and jellyfish are occasional issues, and algae has been reported.
