A great area for beach activities. There's only one shop there, but you can get basics - drinks, snacks, etc, so make sure you take most things you need.

The spot to dig is in front of the cliff face - look for loads of people lying in holes in the sand, that'll give you a good indication!! Once you've dug far enough, hot water will come out from under the sand and fill your bath - be careful, it can be very hot! Once you've made your bath - lie in it! We had great fun altering the size and shape of ours, and raising the sand in some levels to make it more comfy! And, if it gets too hot, you can always cool off in the sea...
