    Lots of seaweed please clean up the place,brother wanted shells instead he got nothing than broken tiny shells. Lots of Styrofoam and plastic he thought they were shells. But the water is very fresh and cooling and lots of shade. The changing rooms are small without that much privacy and showers. But it still was fun for my family.
