What people say

"We came to this beach on a friend's recommendation. It was busy, but not in an annoying way. We rented a sunbed and a parasol, which I think came to 30 euros in total. A lot of people had brought their own parasol. There's also a bar on the beach that looked nice. Showers and restrooms were available."
