A charming and secluded beach nestled amidst towering cliffs awaits you. The shoreline is adorned with a mix of pebbles, corals, and glistening sea glass fragments. As the sun began to set, we were treated to a breathtaking display of colors that painted the sky in hues of orange and pink.

If you're looking for an exhilarating adventure to add to your bucket list, cliff diving is an absolute must-try. The perfect spot for this daring activity can be found right here. The cliff stands tall at around 40 feet, offering just the right amount of height for a safe and exciting jump. On the edge of the cliff, you'll find a sturdy concrete step, with curious iguanas perched nearby, perhaps observing or cheering you on. The water below is simply stunning, and the small beach you'll swim to is cozy and charming. For those seeking the perfect photo opportunity, there's a fantastic vantage point on the corner of the cliff that's sure to capture the moment beautifully.

The scenic beauty of the beach is truly remarkable, but when it comes to the food and pricing, it's just average. If you're looking for a satisfying culinary experience, it's better to explore other options.
