This is actually one of the main reasons I like to bring my kids there during non-school holiday time. Even better if weekday. The beach is so nice. As in the sand and the sea, very good for play. And not many people, especially in the morning. To us this is a pro, not a con.

But haven't had the chance in a while...now all my kids have started school. I will go somewhere else, it's just too crowded during school holiday.
