User reviews
"The beach is absolutely beautiful and perfect for unwinding. The sight of planes flying above is breathtaking, and it's amazing to witness numerous turtle nests."
Samantha Rivers
"I rated this beach with 5 stars as it provided a serene and peaceful environment with minimal crowds (especially during my visit in mid-May). The water was shallow and spread over a vast surface area, ideal for young children to enjoy without any anxiety, and the absence of big waves made it even better. The stunning views from the two beachside restaurants were breathtaking..."
