Although the beach has its picturesque beauty, it has been marred by the presence of fishermen's houses, rendering it no longer pristine. The narrow and winding road leading to the beach is a challenge for small cars, and to add to the inconvenience, there is no cellular network coverage in the area.

The beach may be picturesque, but the journey to get there is a treacherous one. The winding road is a nightmare to navigate and requires a sturdy pick-up truck to make the journey. Despite the hassle, the beach itself offers a peaceful escape from the world. The scenery is breathtaking, but the journey to get there may not be worth it for those seeking an easy and stress-free vacation.

This charming beach may be petite and secluded, yet it offers a delightful spot for camping. The rugged path leading to the beach may not be the smoothest ride, requiring a sturdy pickup to navigate, but the destination is well worth the journey.
