"Great beach right next to the Promenade. Has an area for children to play. Has palms to chill and relax. We got some waves the first day and no waves the second. With a large selection of restaurants, bars, ice cream shops and more. Not a lot of hustlers trying to sell you stuff. Just locals and tourist families enjoying a day at the beach."

"Great beach, not too big, lively clear water from the sea, lapping onto the beach. Plenty going on with water sports, swimmers & snorkelers every where. I loved the choice of seafront restaurants with reasonable prices. I paid only 28€ for lunch, tho we only had water for drinks. Parking's easier than any other beach I've been to locally."
