The beach boasts a stunning view and is an incredible destination with hospitable locals. However, communication can be challenging in a foreign country where English is not widely spoken. Nevertheless, the experience is worth it, and I would definitely return given the opportunity. The breathtaking scenery and affordable, delicious food make it a must-visit spot.
