While watching turtles in the water, all I could talk about were the coronas on the beach. The location was perfect, but unfortunately, I didn't stay here. I really wish I had!

This place has a fascinating history, as people used to leave postcards and letters here in the past. Whenever someone visited and found a letter or postcard from their hometown, they would take it and deliver it. Surprisingly, this practice is still ongoing today. However, we were a bit unsure whether we had to personally deliver the letters or if we could simply mail them with a stamp. Eventually, we decided to take some of the letters that had been there for quite a while and sent them off by mail.

There are few offers for accommodation in the beach area, so finding a suitable place to stay can be a problem. You can use the map search to get more information about this.
