The picturesque harbour is full of little fishing boats during the season and local children are often seen leaping off the end of the quay. (on purpose!)

The beach is popular with families and is a great place for swimming, sunbathing, and picnicking, and the Hidden Hut offers a fantastic opportunity for first-class catering and awesome "feast nights" all while overlooking the beach.
