This is a great spot if you want to get away from the crowd. Food vendors on site several beaches to choose from.
I'm not to sure about restroom facilities, I'm sure they are there I just didn't need them.

Very good park with plenty of free parking. Easy entry into the water. Bathroom and showers available. There are a few chairs and umbrellas for rent for around 20 USD. Come early if you want a chairs. There is plenty of shaded areas for beach blankets.

It is still very much a nice picnic and relaxing spot for the whole family on a bank holiday and any day for that matter, with a play park for the kids, a recreational area for your morning or evening exercises.
Nice boardwalk stroll along the beach in the evening to catch the lovely sunsets, popular sunbathing and snorkeling spot too with bathrooms and showers on site, the marine park section was closed on my visit but worth checking out.

Great place for a picnic, a family reunion or a family focused get together.
Nice grounds, with seating and a few courts, I think tennis and basketball. They also have a nice beach with bathroom and changing facilities. And a cute if small boardwalk.
They have off-street parking, which is a nice touch as the main road is a bit busy. Almost a hidden gem!

Absolutely loved this place! I liked both beach and snorkeling even better than at Carlisle bay. The artificial reef harbors plenty of tropical fish, stingrays and tapping come even up close to the beach and if you swim a little bit out (look for the tour boats) you can easily find the seagrass patches where you can see sea turtles. If you want to take a tour you better bring cash ($50-60, US Dollars). A few nice lunch options are around as well - we loved Calma Beach Club. The best snorkeling is just in front of the club.
