The beach is fantastic with its clear waters. It's advisable to bring shade, as well as food and drinks. However, the dirt road leading to the beach from the main road is quite bumpy. Additionally, there are wasps in the area, so it's wise to come prepared with something to prevent stings or to alleviate them if necessary.

This beach is a hidden gem that is not well-known to tourists. It appears to be a favorite spot among locals, and you might even have the entire beach to yourself! Make sure to bring all the necessary items with you. The beach is covered in pebbles and offers excellent snorkeling opportunities. The water gets deep quickly, but there is a shallow area along the entire beach that is suitable for smaller children. The last section of the road leading to the beach is a bumpy dirt road, only wide enough for one car, and it goes downhill. However, if you drive cautiously, it is manageable.
