Wow, this beach is a must-visit for everyone! We decided to come early in order to have a more peaceful experience observing the rays, but unfortunately, we didn't spot any. However, I wasn't really expecting to see them, so we simply took a stroll along the beach. At around 9:00 am, we finally caught sight of the first rays gracefully gliding through the water. They were absolutely stunning and surprisingly friendly! If you remain still and calm, they will swim right by your feet.
This beach is a hidden gem that my local friend introduced me to. He gave us a ride there in his 4WD and was confident that only locals knew about this place. The journey to the beach was a bit rough, but I believe it will be worth it for snorkeling. I had the incredible experience of encountering a stingray for the first time in my life and swimming alongside it, which was absolutely surreal and unforgettable for me!
We made a stop here on our way to Augusta. The parking was convenient, and there were toilet facilities available. It was just a short walk to the beach, perfect for swimming, surfing, or simply people-watching, which is exactly what we did while enjoying our lunch in the car with a great view. The area speaks volumes when the nearby store/cafe (which doesn't look impressive from the outside) offers high-quality champagne along with a nice selection of other wines and sandwiches. It was like a TARDIS! Next time, we'll definitely be buying our food from there, as it looked much better than what we had brought with us.
This beach is perfect for swimming and offers great snorkeling spots. There are plenty of unique shells to discover as well. It wasn't too crowded when we visited, but the beach itself is quite spacious.
