Guide
Good to know
Bring sunscreen and plan shade early
Buildings along the promenade cast shade in late afternoon, so morning visits offer full sun exposure.
Plan for very shallow water
You must wade out twenty to thirty meters before the water reaches chest depth.
Visit September or before summer
The beach is spacious and peaceful in shoulder season, with free parking readily available and fewer crowds than August.
Arrive early to secure parking
Parking fills quickly during peak times, with visitors reporting difficulty finding spots near the beach in summer.
Check current flags before swimming
Red flags indicating strong currents or hazardous conditions are common here, sometimes flying three days out of five visits.
