The beach offers beautiful scenery, but it's a shame that the lighthouse is no longer accessible.

This beach is a great place to catch the sunset, and it only takes about 15-20 minutes to hike here. Even if you're under the influence of shrooms, the hike is still pretty manageable. Getting to the rooftop may require a bit more effort, but as long as you arrive early, you'll be able to find a comfortable spot to sit.
