How do I explain about this beach? I am in love with this beach and will always be my favourite. It's quiet, calm, raw, clean, not crowded and perfect for relaxation. It has so much to offer for snorkellers. You can get free fish foot massage. Good place for surfers too. As we walk by the beach, you tend to explore more.

I found the sand to be too porous and shifting to wade in the shallows comfortably, so I watched the surfers further out from my 50k shaded loungers. The place I rented from was maybe 3/4 down the shore, and super nice family. I also bought a ginormous coconut, who knew they held so much water? Spent over four hours here without noticing the time. Actually fell asleep, so must've been good! There are areas where young people do their socializing instagram thing, but further along the beach it's quieter for couples, solitude seekers, and families. …
