This beach is truly amazing! It's stunningly beautiful, not too crowded, and the water is pleasantly warm with gentle waves.

When visiting this beach, please be mindful and take all of your belongings with you when you depart. The entrance clearly states this request. This location is a true gem, a miniature paradise that is unfortunately marred by the presence of bottles and beer cans. While the amount of litter is not excessive, it is still disheartening to see any at all. If you visit during the rainy season, be sure to make your way down by foot or with a 4x4. The views are simply breathtaking and the water is absolutely divine.

The beach was truly enchanting, and the mud treatment left me feeling rejuvenated like I was a decade younger. However, it's important to exercise caution while swimming as the ocean can be unpredictable.

The beach was a mud beach and we had an easy hike to reach it. Upon arrival, we found only a handful of peaceful individuals present. The road leading to the beach was quite rugged, and we probably should have had an AWD, but we managed to make it there nonetheless.
