User reviews
"The absence of amenities and commercial establishments on this beach is notable. The only way to reach it is by traversing the coastal footpath, which takes more than 30 minutes from the nearest road. However, the breathtaking views of the coastline are worth the effort. Additionally, it's worth noting that clothing is optional on this beach."
Lila Matthews
"A beach where clothing is optional, also known as a nudist beach, requires a decent hike from the road and provides a great exercise on the ascent. It's not clearly marked, so locating it may pose a challenge."
