User reviews
"The beach is a stunning and immaculate crescent shape, with a sea cave that can hold up to 50 individuals. It's important to exercise caution when exploring the cave, as the upper rock layers may come loose. The cave is filled with sand and boasts a high ceiling, while the exterior is relatively low."
