If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive.

User reviews
"This serene beach is a delightfully pleasant destination. Although the road leading to it spans a distance of 2.6 kilometers and is unpaved, it can be navigated with ease as long as one exercises caution. The journey may be slightly challenging, but the reward at the end is absolutely worth it."
Landon Lee
"Wow, what a hidden gem! You'll have to navigate a treacherous 4km road to get there, but trust me, it's worth it. And if you're lucky enough to make it, you'll be rewarded with a charming little bar right on the beach. Just be sure to bring your hiking boots and a sense of adventure."
