User reviews

"Choose the beach for its serene ambiance and the soothing sound of the waves crashing against the shore. This beach is ideal for those seeking solace and tranquility, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. It's best to avoid the turtle watch as it can cause undue stress to these gentle creatures. Let's respect their natural habitat and give them the space they need..."

Nicolette Renard.

"If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable experience on the beach, head out at night between 8 and 9 pm to witness the enchanting sight of turtles laying their eggs. You can join a turtle watch tour guide at Turtle Point, who will guide you through the mesmerizing movements of these magnificent creatures using red flashlights. Remember not to use your own flash or mob..."
