There is also a bar on-site, where visitors can purchase snacks and drinks. Another service offered to visitors is guidance on how to reach the beach. Parking is available for visitors at the beach, however, it comes at an additional cost. Despite the availability of parking, it is recommended to arrive early, as the beach tends to get crowded, particularly with locals. The beach has a decent amount of free space for visitors to enjoy, although the terrain can be a bit rough. The infrastructure of the beach is somewhat lacking, which may not make it suitable for families with young children. Additionally, the presence of loud music and a party atmosphere at the beach suggests that it caters more to a younger and adult crowd. Several streams flow into the bay, resulting in somewhat cooler water temperatures at the beach, adding to the refreshing experience for visitors during warm weather.
