Simply a nice and uncrowded corner despite the nearby campsite. The beach lounge offers food and drink and impresses with its friendly staff. You can also sit comfortably outside in the sandy area. Additional deck chairs are available on the beach free of charge. If the beach lounge isn't open, you can also get something from the campsite kiosk.
