This beach is an absolute gem, with its pristine white sand and crystal-clear waters that are simply breathtaking. The best part is that it's never too crowded, so you can truly relax and soak up the sun in peace. The weather here is just perfect, adding a touch of romance to this already idyllic location.

Amidst the Covid pandemic, the beach appears to have more beachboys than tourists. However, it is important to empathize with them and share a little bit of your time. The beach itself is truly spectacular, with soft sand that feels divine no matter where you go. The sea is perfect for swimming or engaging in other water activities, and the lack of bars or hotels ensures that the beach remains uncrowded. The hotels are discreetly tucked away behind the lush coconut trees, creating an illusion of being in the middle of nowhere.

This incredible beach is a true hidden gem - it's absolutely deserted! The crystal clear waters are a stunning shade of blue that will take your breath away. If you're feeling adventurous, hop on a camel and explore the coastline. The locals are super friendly and will even offer you fresh coconuts to sip on while you soak up the sun. For those seeking more excitement, there are plenty of water sports available to get your adrenaline pumping. And don't forget to check out the amazing snorkeling spots - you'll be amazed by the colorful marine life. All in all, a truly lovely spot to spend a day or two!
