User reviews
"The beach is secluded, with very few people around. It's just a short walk from a small parking lot, and I even ran there from the bus station. The path to the beach was picturesque. When I visited, the water level was low, so the lagoon was quite far away and I didn't end up swimming."

"For those who appreciate nature, this beach is a must-visit! The beach itself is stunning, and in the shallows you can spot young sharks and small rays. As you venture further out, you'll be able to see an abundance of coral, fish, and rays."
