This beach is a true gem, tucked away in a secluded spot that adds to its natural allure. The water is so clear that you can see right to the bottom, and the surrounding scenery is simply breathtaking. It feels like stepping into a paradise on earth.

The view of the beach is indeed remarkable, but that's the only good thing about it. The waves are too strong, making it impossible to swim without being pulled away by the current. It's not a place for relaxation and enjoyment, but rather a danger zone for those who dare to venture into the water. Overall, it's not worth the visit unless you're a thrill-seeker looking for a challenge.

This charming and isolated beach boasts excellent surf conditions, although the orientation of the waves is crucial. The beach can be approached from either the North or South, but requires a brief stroll to reach. Unfortunately, accessibility may prove to be a challenge.
