The water at this beach is simply amazing, and although the sand is just okay, it is worth mentioning that it has a unique brown color.

The beach experience is largely influenced by the weather conditions and the waves. In tranquil weather, the beach is pristine and perfect for swimming, with a vast expanse of shallow water. However, during windy days, more debris and seaweed are washed ashore, making it less appealing. Additionally, it is advisable to be cautious of the rocky terrain beneath the water surface. But fret not, as there are trees that offer a serene shade to relax under.
