User reviews

"The beach boasts a stunning natural landscape, earning a solid 5-star rating. Its secluded, tranquil, and pristine setting adds to its appeal. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that there are rip currents and occasional upwelling of cold water, making it unsuitable for the average beach enthusiast."

Anselmo Rivera

"The beach is incredibly stunning, with crystal-clear water and gentle waves. It's suitable for young children to swim, although the water can be a bit chilly. The breeze is minimal, and the sand is spotless, free from any litter. On weekends, you'll find a good number of locals enjoying the beach, but it's not as crowded as the beaches you'd find in Europe. I absolutely ador..."
