The beach is pristine with golden sand, but it's quite secluded and lacks any amenities. You'll need to bring your own supplies if you plan on spending time there. Unfortunately, the sea often washes up dead fish, emitting an unpleasant odor, and there's hardly any shade to escape the sun. Nonetheless, the beach's natural beauty is breathtaking.
