4 Frustrating

This petite beach may not seem exceptional at first glance, but its name, Starfish, hints at the unique marine life that inhabits its shores. As the moniker suggests, starfish are abundant here, but it's important to admire them from a distance and refrain from handling them. Despite its modest size, Starfish beach offers a tranquil and secluded escape from the hustle and bustle of larger, more crowded beaches.
