Magic Sands Beach
10 Leda Marzullo.

This quaint beach is bursting with charm, lively individuals, and breathtaking vistas. The rocky terrain provides an opportunity to spot small sea creatures, adding to the allure of the locale. Although the waves can be forceful, particularly during low tide, it is an invigorating experience to navigate the current. In my opinion, this spot is ideal for witnessing stunning sunsets, surpassing even the Pier in town. I am certain that I will return to this delightful spot in the future.
