Great spot for a music festival; we couldn't stop looking at the surrounding coastline and the lighthouses. Just awesome!

Love this beach, usually pretty quiet but has flags for swimming in the summer, nice wide open spaces and good views, close to playgrounds, bus stops and food. There are public toilets, beach showers …
