The beach is stunning, but it's best to arrive early and avoid a crowd of boats.

This beach is truly stunning and one of the most beautiful on the island. The photo doesn't do it justice as the water is absolutely breathtaking. We had been exploring the island for three days and this was definitely the most beautiful beach we had seen so far. Although we did come across some other stunning ones later on. I remember being completely impressed with this one. ❤️🇧🇷
