In my opinion, this beach is an ideal destination to unwind and enjoy a leisurely Sunday. The abundance of lush palm trees creates a serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. Furthermore, the beach boasts three small coves, providing ample opportunities for swimming and soaking up the sun. Overall, it's a fantastic spot to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and bask in nature's beauty.

The beach is truly breathtaking, with immaculate sands and the added bonus of shark enclosures. While the water quality may not be optimal for snorkeling, with limited visibility of around 10ft, I personally have no issue and still find the experience to be exceptional.

Nestled on the eastern shore of Coconut Island, lies a quaint and serene beach accompanied by a rest area. This hidden gem is open to the public during daylight hours and can only be accessed by non-motorized watercraft. The beach is perfect for snorkeling with a good chance of spotting turtles. It's a small yet charming area that deserves to be treated with care and respect. So, if you plan on visiting, please be kind and leave the area better than you found it.
