Beautiful white sandy beach with lovely warm water and good snorkelling! The only downside is that you can't walk along the beach without being asked constantly to buy things from the beach boys! More

The place was undergoing some rennovation work but it did not hamper my stay there. The hotel is on the beach so you have an option to stroll on teh beach.

When visiting Africa please be understanding of the poverty many of the people who live and work there must struggle with and that the sellers on the beaches have no other income other than what they can make through their trinkets they sell.

Beutiful beach. However you do get alot of hassle on the beach from the locals. Once you get firm they leave you alone. We went snorkalling and we saw lots of different species of fish. We saw a female trigger fish laying eggs then fertalised by a male - superb to see. More

Breath Taking! The view here was amazing! The sand was really white and the water was super warm and lovely! You can take a stroll along the beach anytime and can watch kids play soccer games! There are a lot of vendors who try to sell you things but once you have firmly said no they will leave you alone!... More

We stayed in a hotel which fronted straight onto the beach. It was lovely to go swimming or just taking a walk. The beach sellers are there but they don't bother you if you don't show interest. Don't let them put you off as the beach is great! More
