4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Sand isn't leveled out so drive close to the water, a few cars did get stuck even at that, we did as well but we took boards so got out in no time.

5/5 - Excellent

This year their were plenty of jelly fish, 2 members of my family were stung in the shallow areas of the beach.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

There were cigarettes on the sand and since there's a lot of traffic of vehicles sand wasn't on the best conditions. Also they dont take foreign money and that's inconvenient when there's not an option to pay with credit card
