Good toilets and directly at the beach.

2 flush toilets and a children playground.
Beautiful sunset at this campground :)
You must park near the road, fortunately there was not much traffic at the time.

Almost perfect, lovely area, beautiful views, close to the ocean.
Clean flushing toilets. Right next to the highway, wagon noise slightly louder than others next to the road because the site is at the bend so they have to brake and accelerate. Only a few wagons passed, a relatively quiet road.

Nice place with 2 toilets (one was permanently closed...).
But you have to stay close to the road and there ate no bushes or something else between. That's why -1*
