Fantastic wide sandy beach with turquoise water and a great dune landscape behind it. If you only want to go to the beach and not to the lighthouse, you should drive past the car park at the lighthouse and take the car park a little to the north. There are also smaller circular hiking trails that are not overly demanding.
