away from the strong currents and move farther down the beach. The sand quality is
good. There are bars and restaurants nearby across the street. Directions:

This is a very long, thin stretch of beach starts just before the toll gate and

don't expect a nice, soft beach to sit on. Take A chair. Water's shallow. Fishing's good.
Bathrooms are available. The best part is the free parking. Park wherever you want. A
no-hassles beach not under Sanbel jurisdiction.
