A very cool beach, long, clean sand without coral debris, the only downside is that there are no palm trees on the beach and only paid sun loungers with umbrellas if you need shelter from the sun, the best hotel is Arrival

The sea is beautiful, like glass. The water is warm and there aren't many waves. It might be the most beautiful sea I've ever swum in.
