User reviews
"This location is a real paradise! The water is so crystal clear and blue, it's like a dream. The ocean is so tranquil and the water is shallow. There are small rocks when you enter the water, and the sand is a stunning gray. You can snorkel and spot plenty of fish. Get there early to secure a spot, as this beach is a popular destination."

"Nothing special this time of year, with the sunsets being the only redeeming feature. Unfortunately, even the sunsets are not as spectacular as one might expect."
