Good to know

Quiet beach for walks and solitude
The beach remains uncrowded even in peak season, attracting visitors seeking tranquility rather than lively atmosphere.
Arrive early on summer weekends
Parking fills quickly in July and August, though locals know alternative spots away from the main entrance.
Wear water shoes for rocky areas
The beach has substantial rocks mixed with sand, especially in the first few meters of water.
Check for jellyfish before swimming
Jellyfish appear occasionally and have driven visitors away on some days.
