This beach is an absolute paradise with its picturesque beauty. The lengthy shoreline offers ample space for everyone to relax and enjoy the soothing ambiance. The waves are perfect for boogie boarding, and the warm sun is perfect for soaking up some Vitamin D. However, it's essential to bring a beach tent as there is no natural shade available.

This stunning beach with breathtaking views, although it's important to note that swimming is not advised. Sadly, there is no natural shade to be found, so it's highly recommended to bring along a beach umbrella for protection from the sun's rays.

Although the beach itself may be stunning, it's difficult to give it a fair rating when the journey to get there is unbearable. After enduring an hour of the roughest jeep ride imaginable, my companions and I were forced to turn back. I'm uncertain of our proximity to the beach, but I would advise against attempting the journey. There are many other breathtaking beaches that are far more easily accessible. Giving it a single star may not be entirely just, but the road leading to it is certainly a deterrent.

There isn't much to behold at this beach, but it stretches out for miles and is incredibly serene. The lack of visitors on this side of the island adds to the tranquility of the atmosphere.
