The shoreline is composed of smooth sand, albeit with sporadic outcroppings of rugged rock formations. The waves are ideal for surfing, and the concealed and charming abode is a delightful surprise. The ascent and descent to the beach is quite steep, providing an excellent opportunity for a vigorous exercise routine.

The beach boasts a breathtaking view of the sunset and offers a stunning area for a leisurely stroll on its flat, golden sand. For those seeking exercise, this beach is perfect for running due to its lengthy and even terrain. However, it's important to note that there is a steep road leading down to the beach, which requires a ten-minute walk, but the stunning views make it all worth it. Just be aware that the uphill trek can be quite a challenge.
