User reviews
"Nice beach to indulge in stick-play. It is a haven for driftwoods that always find their way to this shore. The abundance of wood is truly remarkable! And if you are lucky, you may stumble upon some hidden gems nestled in the sand. However, I would caution against visiting during midday when the sun is scorching hot, as the sand can feel like it's burning your feet."
Aria Sutherland
"The beach is a perfect destination for a serene picnic, a peaceful fishing trip or an adventurous canoeing experience. The shoreline offers a breathtaking view, particularly during the magical sunset hours. The beach is adorned with black sand which adds an element of intrigue to the landscape."
