The beach is completely empty, with endless stretches of white sand and magnificent cliffs of various hues. There are also caves that have been intricately carved into the rocks. It's definitely worth exploring the entire length of this beach by walking, but do exercise caution as loose stones may fall from the cliff tops.

The beach is a delightful destination, boasting a one-of-a-kind and well-preserved natural environment that remains relatively untouched by human habitation. Situated within an Environmental Protection Area (APA), the local community relies primarily on artisanal fishing for their livelihood. Standing atop the cliff, one can behold a truly awe-inspiring sight - the vastness of the azure waters. This beach is renowned for its role as a sanctuary for biodiversity, as its unique environmental characteristics provide a safe haven for endangered species like the marine manatee.
