This beach is an ideal spot for a delightful BBQ experience. During weekends, you can witness a plethora of Chamorros rejoicing and having a gala time. The parking area is spacious and convenient, and there are designated areas to change clothes. The beach itself is pristine and devoid of unsightly seaweed.
