Positive experience: Good parking, showers, clean bathrooms, lifeguard, a beach bar, and Neptuno and Sottocasa nearby for food. Not suitable for children because there is a step at the entrance and with stones, but at least it is quiet and has better sand than the ones in the area.

Positive experience: Schöner großer Strand aber nicht so ganz sauber, parken kann man direkt am Strand

Positive experience: Lovely quiet place with lots of free parking, miles of empty beach but you need bea h shoes/sliders as it is very pebble.

Fantastic experience: Muy buena playa, tranquila sin problemas para aparcar, arena de río y el agua aunque un poco sucia de algas en la orilla muy refrescante y como una balsa

Negative experience: Saying that the beach is dirty is an understatement. There are plastics everywhere, you can literally see TRASH both along the shore and floating in the water. It's quite disgusting, to be honest, I don't know if it's due to a recent storm or what, but please I urge that it be resolved. Other than that, the atmosphere is good, coarse sand, showers and beach bars nearby, and even an exercise park with bars.

Fantastic experience: L’endroit est idéal pour venir se baigner et bronzer, mais attention à certaines périodes car il y a parfois de grosses vagues et le drapeau est rouge. C’est une grande plage de sable. Vous serez tranquille, car il n’y a généralement que des familles. Il y a aussi 2 Maitres nageurs qui surveillent la baignade. Je recommande cette plage. Elle est génial. #playa #espagne

Positive experience: 4 étoiles car plage peu fréquentée même en août ce qui est assez rare par ici. L'eau est poissoneuse mais prévoir chaussons de baignade pour les pieds sensibles, quasiment pas de sable au fond de l'eau.

Positive experience: Un poco descuidada. El socorrista llega a las 11,15h. Un buen escalón al entrar en el agua con fondo de piedras. El oleaje...peligroso. No es playa para nadar con niños.
