Great local beach all sand and lots to do around the area. The beach has plenty of parking near hy but does get very very in the good weather there are plenty of places to get something g to eat and drink the town center is only a short walk through the lovely garden which will take you straight into the town center where there are a number of pubs also

13th June. Visited the beach with wife, her sister and my 2 year old daughter. My wife was harassed while sunbathing by one of four overseas visitors. When I say harassed, that is mild, all while I was close by. I asked the person to leave quickly as I was clearly annoyed. The group of overseas visitors then went over to three young girls, clearly under 16. They grabbed their belongings and left. They too were harassed. I went to the Police who were patrolling. They escorted the overseas visitors off the beach. The clientele has deteriorated over the last 20 years.
