This bay is absolutely stunning! The natural beauty of the surroundings is truly breathtaking. However, the experience was somewhat marred by the presence of several individuals who were using megaphones to direct our boat crew. It appeared that one of the captains was particularly concerned about maintaining an unobstructed view of the bay. Perhaps this location should be renamed Karen Bay in honor of this person's dedication to preserving the view. Despite this minor inconvenience, I would still highly recommend this beach as a must-visit destination.
