The Riu Palace boasts of a pristine beach that is just a stone's throw away from my room. The beach is simply perfect, with crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand that is perfect for sunbathing or taking a leisurely stroll. It's a true paradise that offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Nestled along the coast lies a stunning expanse of untouched beach. The sand glimmers like gold under the warm sun, and behind a portion of the beach, a grand dune rises up to create a breathtaking backdrop. A serene lake or river lies nearby, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I found myself drawn to the tranquil shade of the trees by the lake, where I occasionally indulged in sunbathing in the nude without disturbing anyone. During my week-long stay, I encountered only one other naturist, which speaks to the seclusion and privacy of this pristine paradise. Our accommodations at the Riu Karamboa, situated next to the dunes, were top-notch and worthy of a four-star rating.

This beach is an absolute gem, a true paradise for those seeking a slice of heaven on earth. The soft sand and crystal clear waters are simply breathtaking, and the gentle breeze is like a soothing balm for the soul. It's hard not to feel relaxed and at peace in such a stunning setting. In fact, it's almost too perfect - one can't help but wonder if it's all a mirage. But no, it's real, and it's simply lovely.

The ocean may seem impressive at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it is nothing more than a vast expanse of water with no end in sight. The waves crash relentlessly against the shore, creating a deafening roar that never seems to cease. The sand is coarse and gritty, making it uncomfortable to walk on, and the sun beats down mercilessly, leaving no respite from the unbearable heat. Overall, the beach is a disappointing and underwhelming experience that fails to live up to its hype.
