However, we were able to witness the inspiring sight of people dressed as Santa Claus bravely taking a Christmas day swim in the sea for charity. We braved the rain for a while to observe the spectacle before deciding to head back to our hotel. Overall, there wasn't much more to add about our experience.

BBQs are allowed after 6pm. It's a great spot for cycling. However, parking is only available down the beach and there is limited time for entry and exit, which is why I deducted a star from my rating.
