The pebble beach is quite lovely, with a natural charm that is hard to resist. While the road leading to it may be a bit bumpy, it's nothing to worry about. It's also worth noting that this beach seems to be a popular spot for free camping, as there were quite a few people with tents and camper vans set up along the shore. All in all, it's a beautiful place to relax and unwind, and well worth the journey to get there.

This beach is supposedly amazing, but let's be real, it's just another stretch of sand and water. Sure, the natural beauty is there, but what beach doesn't have that? And don't even get me started on the snorkeling. You HAVE to have snorkels to explore? How about just enjoying the beach without having to spend more money on equipment? And walking to the tiny island next to the beach? Yeah, because that's such a thrilling adventure. Overall, this beach is just another overhyped tourist trap.

The beach we visited on a Monday in September was truly a hidden gem. It was serene and tranquil, with only us indulging in snorkeling. The road leading to the beach was not as treacherous as we had anticipated, and any car, even a small rental car, can easily navigate it. We noticed some recent maintenance work on the track with fresh gravel, which could explain why it was closed two weeks ago. Overall, it was a pretty nice and secluded beach that we would definitely recommend.

4 Frustrating

Although the beach itself is pleasant, the journey there is quite arduous. We encountered another vehicle coming from the opposite direction and became stuck, requiring us to spend half an hour resolving the issue. Additionally, we discovered litter scattered about the shoreline. We made an effort to collect as much as possible, but it seems there are more desirable locations to relax and take a dip.

The water at the beach is exceptionally clean, however, the pebbles can make it slightly uncomfortable. Nevertheless, the sea compensates for this minor inconvenience with its breathtaking beauty.
