"Prepare to have your mind blown by this beach! The water is so clear, you'll think you're swimming in a giant fishbowl. The sand is so soft, you'll want to bury your toes in it and never leave. And don't even get us started on the scenery- it's like something out of a postcard. The breeze is so gentle, it'll lull you into a state of pure relaxation. The waves are so soothing..."

The waves can be a bit rough, so be prepared for a bit of excitement. A..."
