This hidden treasure of a beach is truly a sight to behold! It is a verdant oasis where one can spend a day basking in the sun or exploring the depths of the ocean. My daughter had the most amazing experience scuba diving with the playful dolphins, thanks to the knowledgeable and patient guide. The restaurant on the premises serves delectable cuisine, and there is even a bar to enjoy a refreshing drink. Though it may not be the most budget-friendly option, the experience is well worth the cost.
