User reviews
"The water at Bessa beach is incredibly tranquil, making it a great option for non-swimmers. You won't find any vendors or shops around, so it's recommended to bring your own snacks and beach gear. This spot is perfect for those seeking a bit of seclusion and who already have access to amenities in the nearby city."
