The beach's surface is primarily gravel and concrete/stone slabs, which may appeal to those seeking a more rugged coastal experience. Its short length of 30 meters suggests it is a modest stretch of shoreline, likely suited for casual use rather than extended sunbathing. The beach's character is defined by its accessibility and the presence of adjacent facilities, which include a restaurant, snack bar, and multiple sports courts for football, basketball, and handball.Swimming and shore
The beach's gravel and concrete composition may not be ideal for swimming, but it provides a stable surface for walking and other shore-based activities. The lack of explicit mention of water depth or swimming facilities in the catalog suggests that this beach is not primarily oriented toward water-based recreation. Visitors should consider its onshore amenities as the main attraction.Facilities and activities
