The sands are fine and clean. Very strong wave and nice sea. Every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday - night market from 5.00pm to 9.00pm.

The public transport was excellent, the beaches are super clean, I found some really funki lil cafe bars on orchid ave up the little ally ways and we also found a little shop called happy high herbs which was off the hook!
