Someone else said it’s a vibe - and it really is. The crowd is largely local and a nice mix of families, couples, friend groups, and singles just looking to swim and soak up some rays. Very chill and respectful. While it does get busy, it doesn’t feel overcrowded, particularly the farther towards the pier you go. It’s a wide beach with pale golden sand and clear, turquoise water with minimal seeweed. Cruise ships pass by occasionally on their way out to sea, which also adds to the charm. There are ice cream shops and restaurants nearby, as well as a playground and a nice walking/running path next to the beach. A really nice place to spend an afternoon.
