Hidden gem! Of course, it depends on your preference, but this is an amazing place if you are adventurous! It felt like we were having a private beach. You can walk along the shore and find another beach nearby. The water is good for swimming, no big waves. No restaurants or anything nearby, but if you come full or bring some food it's not a biggie. Having water is a MUST! It is not too hard to get here. Just take a look at the satellite view. If you are having 4x4, should be fine, if not, depends on your driving experience. Honestly, I parked midway and we walked for 15 minutes as the car was rented not 4x4, and off-road not insured.
