Nice spot and very close to the sea. There are toilets, fresh water, a dumping station, a playground and a shower(open air). Minus 1* because there are some private cars which parking on the same place.

All you could possibly want in a free campsite: clean public toilets, great view and a cold shower (near the beach)

Good spot for freedom camping. Toilets nearby. Sadly, other campervans do not follow signage/rules. We found our campervan blocked in by extra campervans after 8pm. We stayed on a Friday night, the playground nearby was full of many loud children by morning. Fyi, if you are not keen on those sounds.

Good place, get in early to get a flat spot as there are some puddles in the area. Remember to bring dollar coins for the bbq.

What can you say about a free site right on the beach with clean toilets, water and a dump station. Our only issue was it didn’t stop raining.

A primo spot to camp……..pretty much beachfront though unfortunately you cannot see the beach from the parking area.
Huge playground and lots of grassy areas
Walk 2 minutes down the road to small grocery store and liquor shop. Is a bit further away from eating outlets (fish and chips) but possibly a bit quieter away from the main village centre.
