Guide
Good to know
Bring snorkeling gear for marine life
Crystal clear water and abundant fish make this cove excellent for snorkeling, though one reviewer regretted forgetting their mask.
Consider boat access in peak season
Multiple reviewers suggested arriving by canoe or boat is easier than the foot path and avoids the challenging stairs entirely.
Wear water shoes or rock boots
The beach is entirely rocky with sea urchins present, making bare feet painful and risky when entering the water.
Expect a steep, challenging descent
Access involves old, uneven stone steps on a narrow path that are difficult to navigate and not suitable.
Arrive on calm weather days
Strong wind and rough seas make getting in and out of the water difficult on the rocky beach.
