A beautiful, tranquil shoreline with pristine waters and plenty of spots to explore - what a perfect way to spend the day! The clear waters offer a stunning view and the multiple areas provide plenty of opportunities to explore and discover. It's the ideal spot for a peaceful day out in nature.

Beautiful spot!!! Take a dip when the waves are crashing, it's a bit risky but the thrill is worth it!

Nothing short of incredible. If you don a pair of goggles, you can catch a glimpse of the myriad of fish swimming around. The scenery is breathtaking and a great spot to take some fantastic photos. Don't forget to snap a shot of the stunning rock formation!

This location is nothing special - not worth the trip for tourists. You can take a photo on the rock, but it's hardly worth the effort.

The sea is so transparent you can see right through it and the atmosphere is tranquil. There's a beautiful 2 km trek to the neighboring town that's definitely worth taking.
