User reviews
"One can aspire to the highest heights and eventually reach them. A boardwalk leads to a succession of beaches. Embarking on a journey around the point of the needle, equipped with a mask and snorkel, to investigate the crevices and other rocky formations will undoubtedly provide an exciting escapade. Caution is advised."
Landon KIRBY
"This charming beach boasts a cozy atmosphere and stunning views of the mountains that cause the sun to set earlier. The entrance is adorned with stones, leading to a spacious area devoid of stones. Snorkeling enthusiasts will find plenty of underwater treasures to explore. Additionally, visitors can freshen up with the convenience of a beach shower and restroom facilities."
