Guide
Good to know
Expect very cold water year-round
Visitors consistently report the water is cold, though some say it is manageable once you enter.
Ideal for young children and families
The sheltered cove has calm, small waves, shallow entrance, and nearby pool and snack stalls.
Arrive before 10am in summer
The beach fills quickly on warm days, and parking becomes difficult later in the morning.
Use public transport, not parking
Bus lines 5, 3a, and 1A stop within five minutes walk, and parking is limited and fills quickly.
Visit before June for dog owners
Dogs are allowed on the beach only from October through May; they are prohibited June through September.
