The beach is situated right beside the caravan site, it has safe, clean waters for a range of activities – swimming, water-skiing, kayaking, sailing – whatever takes your fancy. Unfortunately, you need to provide your own equipment for these activities as there are no rentals available. The beach has had a “Clean Beach Award” since 2000 and in recent years has been a prime spot for watching the dolphins, porpoises and whales that come into the bay. People also fish from the rocks or from boats, and a Fishing Competition was established in July 2008.
