The bay is characterized by its long sandy beach, which is backed by dunes and grassy areas. The beach is known for its soft golden sand and is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, particularly during the summer months. The gentle slope of the beach makes it an ideal spot for swimming and sunbathing, and it is also a haven for water sports enthusiasts, such as kayakers and windsurfers.
