"A mere ten-minute stroll from my humble abode lies a sandy oasis, perfect for my daily dose of morning meditation. The tranquil atmosphere is unparalleled, with only the gentle sound of the waves lapping against the shore to break the peaceful silence. It's a true sanctuary for the soul, and I feel privileged to have such a serene escape right on my doorstep."
Mara Jolene Augustine
"The beach is truly a hidden gem - a stunning little spot that perfectly embodies its name, "chiquita," meaning small. It's an ideal location to unwind, soak up some rays, and revel in the crystal-clear waters. I've had the pleasure of visiting this beach on numerous occasions, and each time I return, it only gets better."
