User reviews

"The beach perfectly lives up to its name, as its shape resembles that of an ohm symbol when viewed from above during a trek along the shore. The location is incredibly cool, and due to its popularity, it tends to attract a large crowd. It is a popular choice among families and friends looking to spend a pleasant evening."
