The area is a bit congested and dated, but the beach is beautiful and the amenities are all right there! Much was closed due to the pandemic, but we'll go back to see more.

October is a great time to go! Tourists are gone, locals are nice, and it's easy to get around town. Peaceful getaway. Will be going back.
