The beach has a mix of sand and rocks, so it's recommended to wear water shoes. However, it's a stunning location with plenty of water activities to enjoy. Additionally, there's a coral reef nearby that offers a great opportunity for snorkeling and observing various tropical fish. Overall, it's a delightful spot.

The beach is stunning, with pristine white sand and inviting turquoise waters. However, it seems that access to the beach is limited to resort guests.
