The town is absolutely stunning, with a beach that matches its beauty. However, what truly stands out are the people - they are incredibly genuine and beautiful in their simplicity.

To be honest, I wasn't a big fan of it. The beach is indeed quite large, but the ocean waves are too strong to swim in. It's well-known for being a popular nesting spot for turtles. If you engage with the locals, you might be able to camp there, just as I did.
