Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 12 visitors · 2018–2026
Arrive early on summer weekends
Even on August Fridays, the beach remains quiet with few people compared to other coastal areas.
Bring water shoes for entry
Stones and algae at the water's edge can be sharp and uncomfortable underfoot without protection.
Check wind conditions beforehand
The beach faces east, so strong easterly winds cause rough waves and seaweed accumulation.
No toilet facilities available
One reviewer explicitly notes the absence of public restrooms despite other services being present.
