Water

4 / 5 = Sea water was excellent and inviting for swimming. We would go out of our way to swim there again

(These are my, and my family's own unscientific observations of the water feel and appearance during our visit)
We enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool instead of warm. We don' like visible floating particles of any kind or algae settled on the beach.

Notes

Paradise Beach is the last beach in this long stretch of sand, and it's maybe the best of the group. It is lined with fine, golden sand, clean water and a sandy sea bed that slopes gently and remains shallow for a while. Nice rocky area at the western end is great for snorkeling. It does get a bit too crowded with parasols and people, and it has a restaurant, and a variety of water sports.

On the north end, someone bulldozed part of the hill to make room for a few umbrellas and a kiosk where you can pay to use the large inflatable playground that floats offshore. It looks kind of bright but it's a lot of fun, for children and adults alike.
