Before going down

Carry at least water and sun protection.

Snorkelling

Mixed seabed can be interesting in calm, clear conditions.

Safety

Avoid cliff jumping and stay clear of rock in waves.

Accessibility

Road proximity helps, but sand, rock and lack of dedicated facilities prevent a universal-access claim.

Consider an equipped beach club nearby.

What to bring

Water, sunscreen, hat, water shoes and a light umbrella.
