If you want a quieter spot, head to the far left side of the beach. It’s less populated, so you can enjoy a more relaxed experience without all the hustle and bustle of the main area.

If you're planning to surf, try to rent a board instead of buying one. I rented from a local shop and got a great deal. Also, they throw in a quick surf lesson, which was super helpful.

Don't miss the sunset. I recommend sticking around until about 9 PM. The colors are amazing, and it’s less crowded then, plus the vibe is just perfect for a chill evening.

I recommend checking their drink specials before you order – they often have happy hour deals that can save you some cash!

My advice is to chat with the staff; they’re friendly and can recommend some great local beers that you might not find elsewhere

If you want to play billiards, bring some friends and be ready to wait for a table during busy nights. The games are super fun, but it can get competitive!

I recommend going on a weekday morning if you can. It's way less crowded, and you can really enjoy your tea without the bustle. I went on a Saturday and it was super busy!

I recommend downloading a good offline map. Cell service can be spotty in some areas, and you don't want to get lost in those beautiful woods.

Make sure to wear sturdy hiking boots! The trail can be uneven and muddy in some spots. I learned the hard way when my sneakers got soaked.

Don't skip the little detours to explore Roman ruins along the road. They are fascinating and make for great photo ops!

If you're visiting with kids, consider bringing some fun hiking gear like walking sticks or binoculars to keep them engaged and active.

Check the surf forecast before you go! I found that the waves are best in the morning, usually around 9 AM. It's less crowded and perfect for catching some early morning waves.

If you're looking to rent surf gear, I recommend hitting up one of the local shops rather than the beach rental kiosks. You’ll find better prices and a wider selection!

Parking can be a pain, especially on weekends. Try to find street parking a bit further away from the beach. A short walk isn't bad and can save you from pricey parking fees.

I think renting a surfboard for the day is worth it; you can usually find good deals. I had a blast catching waves!

I suggest you try to arrive around 10 AM to nab a good parking spot. It gets super crowded after that!

I recommend showing up at least 15 minutes early to check in and get your gear sorted. This way, you won’t feel rushed and can relax before the action starts.

My advice is to wear old clothes. The paint can get pretty messy, and you don’t want to ruin anything nice. Plus, it adds to the fun vibe

I think you should definitely try the challenge courses if you can. They’re a blast! Just remember, hydration is key – grab that water bottle between rounds!

Check out the daily specials and combo deals. I found a great package for jumping plus a snack that made my visit both fun and budget-friendly.
