Liked: The beach!! Very quiet the night I stayed (just 2 other vans who arrived late) so plenty of space to enjoy the site. Stunning views and beach access. Chilled and friendly site. My 2nd visit and I will be back.
Disliked: Water taps are labelled as for drinking but also that boiling is needed. Clear signage needed and ideally potable water.
