User reviews
"This location is a hidden gem! Despite being a bit tricky to get to, it's so worth it! The serene atmosphere and tranquil beauty make it an ideal spot for some peace and quiet."
Nina Lefebvre
"That place is not worth the trouble. The roads are tricky to navigate and the waves are too loud for a good sleepover. Avoid the hassle and just park your car next to the main road and walk down."
