According to the only person I saw there, the beach shut down due to the pandemic. However, if you enjoy exploring deserted areas and taking a pleasant bike ride on a well-maintained road with stunning views, it's definitely worth a visit. It seems like it was a fantastic spot before the pandemic hit. Let's hope someone can revive it and restore its former charm.

The beach is not particularly impressive, and it seems that due to Covid-19, the shops, hotels, and bars are closed, causing the area to feel like a deserted village. Some locals have mentioned that they are working towards reopening and rebuilding, but it may take some time given the current state of the surrounding area. However, the journey to Pirate Beach by scooter offers better views and a more enjoyable road than the beach itself.

Unfortunately, the beach had to close due to the pandemic, but it was a really lovely spot. The boss wasn't able to provide any information on when it might reopen.

This beach is situated at the southernmost tip of the island and boasts uniquely designed duplex bungalows that overlook the sea. The pool is also a great feature and the owner is very welcoming. If you're more interested in adventure than luxury, you'll have a great time here. I highly recommend this spot. 👌
