Practical tips
Tips for your visit
- Choose the beach by purpose first: short city stop, full beach day, family services, snorkelling or a dog-friendly option.
- Open the beach on the map before deciding how to get there; location often matters more than small differences in ratings.
- Check current flags and seasonal services on the day if accessibility, lifeguards or sea conditions are important.
Things to keep in mind
- Choose by location and services as well as photos.
- Listed parking and services are not a guarantee of availability when you arrive.
