Snorkeling at this beach isn't the best experience. The conditions are far from ideal and you won't get the most out of your time in the water.

This location is the perfect to chill and unwind. You won't regret coming here and taking a kayak out for a spin. It's hot and the perfect place to take a break. Highly recommended!

This beach is a sight to behold. From the pristine shoreline to the crystal blue waters, it's a stunning destination to spend some time. Unfortunately, it's also a magnet for tourists, so it can be quite crowded. This beach is a stunning sight to take in, but it's also a popular spot for tourists. The shoreline is pristine and the water is a crystal blue, but you may have to elbow your way through the crowds to truly appreciate it.
