2 Very poor

The beach experience was quite unpleasant as it was infested with scorpions and unwelcoming individuals. The weather was sweltering and the mosquitoes made it unbearable. The atmosphere was laid-back with many people opting to go naked, but unfortunately, the lack of hygiene was evident. The beach was also overcrowded and plagued with pesky flies.

A solitary and remote beach awaits you. The coastline is covered in soft sand, however, there is an abundance of rocks that line the water's edge.
