User reviews
"The beach has limited parking, but more spots can be found towards the port. While space on the beach is also limited, the snorkeling experience is definitely worth it. Although the water near the shore may be murky, you don't have to swim far to see a variety of fish. The water is shallow near the shore and extends to about 6 meters past the buoys."

"I was thrilled to discover this beachfront parking lot. The beach is clean and well-maintained."
