Er zit nog te veel twijfel in de condities. Eventueel bruikbaar voor een korte strandstop, maar niet als zekere strandkeuze. Let wel op Ruwe zee en Koud water.
Reasonable conditions, but this kind of scenic cliff beach really feels better when the sea looks cleaner and the whole setting opens up more.
