Fishermen bring their daily catch straight to beachfront restaurants, keeping alive the traditional link between sea and local food. This practice lets visitors taste fresh seafood and experience how the coast has shaped eating habits here.

The beach provides showers, toilets, sun loungers, lifeguard services, and designated swimming areas for families. The shallow waters and solid facilities make it suitable for children and less confident swimmers.
