Gorgeous hidden gem right in front of our apartments, there is no reason to come here if you are not local so the beach is pristine and deserted during the week. The beach stretches for miles with resorts to the south and the north, we visited them all and much preferred the serenity of this one

My first camping experience with my dearly family members and friends, memorable and nice! Just that there are only 3 tents ready to rent as seen at the Payung campsite. At night, the visible lighting is very limited, so it is advisable for the visitors to bring more bulbs or portable torches. The facilities of the washroom and water utility is perfect! Clean and convenient. However it would be nicer if the owner can improve on the lighting there. Too dark... Also, there will be no food provided, and hardly find restaurant st nearby places. It would be greater if there is any package including meals. I think this will be an awesome bonus point for visitors coming from far places. Anyways, the seaside is very beautiful and safe. Children and pets friendly too, a good place for gatherings and weekend getaways!!!
