User reviews
"This beach is truly a gem with its stunning white sand that will make you feel like you're walking on clouds. However, if you're planning on taking a dip, don't be fooled by the waves - they're more suitable for surfing than for leisurely swimming. So, if you're up for some gnarly action, grab your board and hit the waves!"
