Well worth a visit. Lovely smooth, sandy beach. Cafes and restaurants very close. Plenty of public seating available at rear of beach, tho' you pay for sunbeds. Not sure of cost as we didn't use. Highly recommended.

Nice long beach with a lift at one end and an escalator at the other one, to get you up or down from the city. Fishermen used to sell their catch here still during the 80's, unfortunately not anymore.
