User reviews
"This location is an absolute delight! The coffee at the kiosk is absolutely delicious and a must-try. It's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery."
Johnathan Claessen
"That place isn't all it's cracked up to be. The black sand looks nice, but the view of the sunset isn't as magical as it's made out to be. And if you're easily offended, you should be warned that there were a few people here with no clothes on."
