User reviews

"It's a lovely secluded spot. The waves can be a bit strong and there are some small rocks in the shallow water, but overall it's very peaceful."

Nikolai Voss

"This beach is accessible for independent visits only, as tours do not include it. It has an open and atmospheric setting, but be cautious of the rocks lurking beneath the water's surface."
