8 Very good

The beach is free and clean you can enjoy peacefully. Not a well established roads but you can reach easily. Seems not safe for family after 6 pm because of very less crowd. No shop near..

Apt for photoshoot and has many nice spots on the way to it. But it'll be less crowded and not advised to go alone. People living there are okay with photoshoot and moving into fields to take shots. Not a big place to spend time.
