Una de las mejores playas de Mar del Plata porque está relativamente cerca de todo y rara vez tiene viento fuerte que afecte directamente, hay varios servicios aledaños que brindan 3eros. Está muy bien cuidada por la ciudad

De las playas más limpias y lindas obviamente, suele haber ferias de artesanías y souvenirs en la parte de la calle y en lo que respecta a las escolleras se puede ir a tomar mate y disfrutar las buenas vistas que ofrece. Asimismo suele ir gente a pescar en esa zona
