One of the most pristine and beautiful beaches I've ever visited! I wish, I could have stayed for more time to enjoy this place! I did some snorkelling and the boat ride to coral reefs nearby to see the most beautiful fishes and was disappointed to not find the dolphins during my time of visit. Apart from that, the overall experience was just awesome!

Very beautiful beach, just spoilt by the local dolphin tour boats, who will throw all the left over foods from the dolphin tour into the sea. Not a nice look, and the smell is worse.
