This is a stunning location that's incredibly peaceful and calming. It would be great if there were some benches available for elderly visitors or those who have trouble sitting on the ground.

This beach is a must-see destination with its smooth, flat, round, and oval rocks. The beach is rocky, but the sound of the waves crashing against them and the water moving back is incredibly soothing. The area is open and safe, but it can be quite windy, and it's not ideal for swimming.
