Beautiful, very clean beach. The tide goes out very early. Children's activities in the main square. Not too crowded. A small shop and children's playground nearby. Lots of street vendors nearby. Many women vendors come around at once to sell you necklaces and fabrics, and they can be a bit pushy, even if they are friendly. Ideal for spending an afternoon sunbathing. White sand, but you sink in it quickly.
