Guide
Good to know
Plan for very shallow water
You can walk 50-100 meters or more before the water reaches waist depth.
Water stays noticeably warm
The sheltered, shallow bay traps heat, making it warmer than the north beach.
Arrive before 10am in summer
Parking fills by late morning on busy days, particularly in August.
Check water clarity before swimming
Reviewers report the water was occasionally murky, and one mentions concerns about sewage system capacity during peak summer.
Watch for sudden depth changes near port
Sand holes and sudden deep spots exist along the waterline in some areas.
