The shoreline is breathtaking, the bay is stunning and the water is crystal clear. Unfortunately, there are no amenities so you won't find any restrooms. Still, it's definitely worth the trip!

This place is far from ideal for relaxation. Kayaking is the only way to get here, and even then you must be well-prepared. The rope they put out is a nice touch, but there are still areas that are hard to traverse.

An ideal spot to spend quality time with your family. It's a bit of a hike to get there, but the journey is definitely worth it. Its tranquil waters are perfect for swimming and are sure to delight both adults and kids. Highly recommended for all.
