Really clean beach. Parking is so close too, literally you walk straight on to the beach. Lots of public toilets available and a harvester restaurant overlooking the beach for food and drinks. It was really clean and a lovely spot to spend the evening.

The view was great but the people were… weird. The foot wash station line was huge and loads of people vaping, smoking, drinking and messing about. I quite liked the water though and the sand castle skills.

Beautiful beach with wide, clean sandy shores, perfect for a relaxing day by the sea. Great for families with nice facilities like lifeguards in season, toilets, cafés, pubs and ice-cream kiosks close by. Easy access from the promenade and great views of the coast. Definitely worth a visit!

Very beautiful beaches. Very clean coastline. Clean sea water. Wide beaches - enough room for all holidaymakers and even more. Lots of bars and restaurants, but none of these turn the music up too loud. The prices in the bars are high, but it is justified.
