Guide
Good to know
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 14 visitors · 2017–2026
Plan for extended walks and strolls
The beach stretches nearly two kilometers with a well-maintained boardwalk and multiple access points ideal for long coastal walks.
Visit off-season for fewer crowds
Weekends and summer fill quickly, but autumn and winter offer space to walk and swim without throngs of people.
Wear water shoes for shell fragments
Decomposing shells create sharp pieces in the sand and shallows that can cut feet even while wading.
Check water conditions before swimming
Water clarity varies from greenish to murky, and reviews note large waves and cooler temperatures that vary by season.
Watch for hazards left by fishing operations
Fishermen work early morning hours and occasionally leave dangerous catches like stonefish on the beach without clearing them.
