The water at this beach is absolutely pristine, with a clarity that is truly breathtaking. It's also quite shallow, making it the perfect spot for wading and swimming. While the trek to get to the beach may be a bit of a challenge, the stunning mountain views along the way make it well worth the effort. Overall, this beach is a true gem and a must-visit destination for anyone who loves natural beauty and adventure.

This beach is a beautiful hidden gem with golden fine sand. It's very nice and surprisingly devoid of people.

There are quite a few submerged rocks that you need to be mindful of while swimming.

As previously stated, this beach is a must-visit destination for tourists. The golden fine sand adds to its charm. However, it would be even more enjoyable if the beach was kept clean.

Although the beach had stunning views, it was unfortunately marred by litter from trees, water bottles, and other debris. Additionally, the sand was quite rocky, making it difficult to enter and exit the beach. Even the sand under the water was uncomfortable due to rocks and algae. Despite these issues, it's worth noting that the sand itself was a beautiful golden color and very fine. Also, the water was noticeably saltier than other beaches I've visited.
