I think you should try to catch the sunset; it’s absolutely stunning around 7:30 PM. Don’t forget your camera! The colors were just breathtaking!

If you want to avoid the hassle, download a local map offline. I lost data signal when I got there, and it made finding my way back a bit tricky.

My advice is to visit during the week, especially on Tuesday or Wednesday. The beach was way less crowded, and I got the best spot to soak up the sun!

Check out the beachside restaurants for lunch deals – some have fixed-price menus that are way cheaper than ordering a la carte. I saved a bunch that way.

My advice is to bring your own beach umbrella if you can. The rentals can be pricey, and finding shade is crucial in the afternoon heat.

If you’re into water sports go to the beach around 4 PM. The rates drop a bit and it’s less crowded so you can enjoy without feeling rushed.

For a chill day, I suggest bringing some snacks and drinks from a local store. It saved me money instead of buying overpriced beachside refreshments!

I recommend exploring the nearby cliffs for some stunning views. The trail is easy to find and offers a perfect photo op away from the crowds.

I really enjoyed snorkeling, so my advice is to bring your gear or rent it nearby. The underwater life is surprisingly vibrant!

My advice is to check the tide schedules in advance! I missed out on the best beach area 'cause I didn't realize the tide was coming in.

If you're keen on swimming, try to get in by around 3 PM. The water was perfect then, but by evening it started to get chilly, and I regretted not jumping in sooner!

I recommend wearing water shoes; the pebbles can be tough on your feet, especially if you're planning to swim.

I suggest visiting Passable Beach in the late afternoon, around 4 PM. The sunsets here are gorgeous, and you avoid the midday crowds. It's the perfect time for some stunning photos!

I think renting a sunbed is totally worth it. It makes lounging more comfortable, and it’s easy to find a spot without stressing over finding a place to lay your towel.

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The beach cafes can be a little pricey, and it's nice to relax on the sand without worrying about spending too much.

If you're planning to hit the beach in the afternoon, try to get there by 3 PM. It gets busier as the day goes on, and the best spots might be taken. Plus, the sunset views are gorgeous!

For the best beach vibe, I recommend checking out the left side of the beach where the crowds are thinner and the vibe is super chill. It's perfect for a relaxing day.

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The beach cafes can be super pricey, and honestly, the food isn't that amazing. I packed a picnic and saved a ton!

I think you should check the tide times before you go. Last time, we got caught with the tide coming in and had to move our stuff so many times. The beach is much bigger at low tide.

I highly recommend visiting during the weekdays. The crowds can get wild on weekends, and you’ll enjoy a much quieter beach experience. Sunbathing without a million people around was bliss!
