Although the journey to reach this beach may be lengthy, the destination is certainly worth the effort. The two steep cliff paths leading down to the shore may pose a challenge for those who are very young or elderly. However, for those who are able-bodied, the trek is a thrilling adventure. Timing is key when visiting this beach, as it is essential to enter the cave during low tide. Overall, the stunning scenery and unique experience make this beach a must-visit destination.

Reinvigorating! Spectacular scenery! As we strolled from the parking area towards the cliff, a distance of approximately 5-6 miles, our intention was to reach the beach. However, we ended up losing our way. Despite this, we had a great time and the stunning vista kept us energized throughout our extended walk!

The effort to reach this beach is certainly rewarded with a serene and picturesque setting. The absence of litter and the scarce presence of visitors make it a tranquil oasis. Located directly along the coastal trail, it's an ideal spot to take a refreshing dip in the water. Don't hesitate to make the journey to this hidden gem.
