The beach is not located here! Other photos on Maps are bad! Don't come here if you are looking for a beach with sand. The entire coast in the area is rocky. I am posting photos that show what the coast looks like in the place marked on the maps. (If you want to swim here, be sure to bring water shoes, but I don't recommend it anyway.)
