On the beach, you will find foot showers, bins, and rental services for sunshades and loungers, all designed to make your stay comfortable. During summer, lifeguard and rescue points enhance swimmer safety. A notable feature is its accessible infrastructure, including ramps and special access for people with reduced mobility, ensuring everyone can enjoy this beach.
