The beach is absolutely stunning and vast in size. Although there are limited parking choices, during our visit, we were pleasantly surprised to find not a single person on the beach. This solitude was something we truly cherished. However, the rocky seabed poses a challenge for swimming.

The beach was pleasant and peaceful. Although our visit was short, we were astounded by the abundance of coral scattered along the shoreline. However, there wasn't a lot of shade available.

The Fushing Community beach is absolutely amazing. It is well-maintained and boasts stunning beauty. There are numerous tables and benches available, perfect for beach barbecues or gatherings. Additionally, there is a convenient small store located across the street. However, it may be a little tricky to find, so don't hesitate to ask for directions.

The beach is quite secluded, away from the usual tourist spots. The road leading here can be a bit bumpy, similar to other parts of the country. You'll find plenty of small hermit crabs and seashells. When we visited in mid-September, the water was pleasantly warm and perfect for enjoying some fun activities.
