User reviews
"We stopped by for a lovely lunch of fresh yellowtail and chicken breast. The service was top-notch and the beach was stunning. We were pleasantly surprised to find that they offered complimentary use of kayaks and floating chairs. To top it off, some local kids even gave my daughters handmade bracelets. I highly recommend this beach!"
