Guide
Good to know
Come for snorkeling on calm days
A reef close to shore offers snorkeling opportunities, but rough water and seaweed can make entry difficult on windier days.
Plan for natural solitude
Visitors consistently reported seeing very few other people, making this a quiet spot for sunbathing and watching boat traffic.
Visit on weekdays or early
The beach is often nearly empty, but weekend evenings host bar events at the resort that may affect noise levels.
Expect rough access road
A dirt road leads to the beach and is passable with an SUV, though some visitors found it rough.
Watch for rocks and shallow coral
The east side is better for swimming, while the broader beach has scattered rocks and dense coral.
