User reviews
"The beach was quite challenging to access, and even when you do, it may not meet your expectations. There are plenty of crabs and rocks, and unfortunately, litter as well. Despite these drawbacks, we still managed to have a great time, and the small shop run by the man selling drinks added to our enjoyment."
Sofiah
"This beach is absolutely stunning, with pristine golden sand that stretches for miles. Although it could benefit from a bit of cleaning, the natural beauty of the beach is truly breathtaking."
