This beach is truly lovely, stretching out for miles with deep, clear waters. However, the most enchanting aspect is the absolute stillness that surrounds you, and if you're fortunate enough to discover it, the cool respite provided by the trees' natural canopy. The only downside is that around midday, there was a bit of foam that made the water seem a bit less pristine, causing us to depart.
