In addition, visitors can rent beach equipment or book kayak and boat tours.  If you enjoy surfing, the beach is known to have frequent windy weather that offers great surfing opportunities, especially for beginners.  Hikers can explore the nearby hiking trails, which offer unique insights into the local biodiversity.  The beach attracts a large influx of visitors, especially during the summer season.  Dogs are not allowed here, and the beach is open from sunrise until sunset.
