“This Park has deteriorated badly over the last couple of years. The emphasis seems to have changed from welcoming tourist campers, to accommodating permanent residents. Maintenance is generally poor and security is dicey. We will not be visiting there again.” - Chris Smit, 2016/01/05
“A campsite not far from the beach. In winter time the campsite is open, but it seems to me, that most people stay there not for a holiday. The âstreetsâ of the camp are very busy in the early morning with fast driving cars, who look like people on their way to a job.” - Jan Amersfoort, 2008/09/01
