The beach is incredibly peaceful, and if you visit during the right season, you might even catch a glimpse of turtles nesting at night, which is truly a sight to behold. In the daytime, there is a small booth selling merchandise and souvenirs, as well as a man displaying his crafts on the beach wall.

The beach is a serene stretch of sand where Careta Careta turtles come to lay their eggs during the breeding season from June to October. It's important to note that it is illegal to collect eggs or disturb the turtles, with penalties including imprisonment. The beach itself is well-maintained and offers ample space for sunbathing. Adjacent to the beach, there is a shop where you can purchase local beverages. On the right side of the beach, you can catch a glimpse of the lion's rock, although I personally didn't spot the lion's face. Due to the limited number of hotels in the area, it remains a tranquil destination. I visited in April, so unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to see any turtles, which was disappointing, but I still highly recommend visiting this beautiful beach.
