User reviews
"This secluded beach is a true hidden gem, tucked away down the road from Villaricos. The rocky terrain makes it a bit tricky to get into the sea, but that's what makes it such a great spot for snorkeling. Plus, there's a big rock pool on one end that's teeming with aquatic life."
Michael Smith
"What an amazing experience! The beach was not crowded and very well-preserved. The sunsets were absolutely stunning."
