The beach was an absolute marvel to behold, with its serene and tranquil atmosphere that left us in awe. We were so taken aback by the beauty of the place that we couldn't help but vow to return again and again. The experience was simply sublime, and we can't wait to bask in its glory once more.

This beach is primarily utilized for launching ski boats, but it also boasts a stunning natural beauty. Unfortunately, there are no shark nets in place for safe swimming, and there are no facilities available for visitors. Despite these drawbacks, the beach remains a lovely spot to soak up some sun and take in the picturesque surroundings. ♥️
