Tranquil, thought-provoking beaches

10 Exceptional

I like to be alone and quiet It's nice to see the sea from the fishing park deck path. There are hills where the sand sinks. Not good for a walk

10 Exceptional

It was a nice place with clean sea, sandy beach and cool breeze. It was nice because it was quiet, but I think there would be a lot of people during the summer vacation season. I want to come back in winter

10 Exceptional

A really beautiful and simple beach before summer. I don't think I'll like it when it starts to get crowded.

6 Pleasant

A small and cozy beach. The water suddenly becomes deep, so it is not suitable for swimming...
