This sandy stretch by the sea may seem like a kiddie haven, but don't let your guard down just yet. The shoreline is littered with sharp stones and the gusts of wind can be quite a force to reckon with. Keep your wits about you and tread with caution, lest you end up nursing a nasty cut or two.

The beach boasts an unparalleled view that is sure to leave you in awe. The peacefulness and stillness of the waters coupled with the velvety texture of the sand make for a serene experience. Although pesky marui may make an appearance during dusk, it's all part of the natural environment. The horizon is truly breathtaking and the stones scattered throughout the sand add a touch of natural beauty.
