it's also a great place for athletes to come jog or bike along the 1700 meters of wide sand beach or newly renovated sidewalk - and with outdoor shower stations everywhere along the promenade athletes can wash off the sand and sweat after a busy afternoon of exercise.

there are a variety of kiosks offering many menus and music, a bicycle path, showers, and public restrooms.    small wind-mills are used to pump the water from the bay into the local beach infrastructure.
