A very interesting place that I'm glad I've been to, but not a place I enjoyed because it was crowded on a weekend. Many people (especially teenagers) with shovels who walked into other people's pools and dig without courtesy. It was not relaxing and actually I was afraid someone might get hurt from the inconsiderate people with shovels.

I was told it's much more enjoyable on a weekday during school time when you can dig a hole and enjoy the hot water without being disturbed.

Make sure you get the tide information on that day. dig only between the two rocks. If you find people inside pools just dig next to them we tried to dig far but it did not work. The tide is usually low twice a day and the people at the reception helped us

I came with a friend on a rainy day. It was great with no one else around, but we weren't prepared to dig the hot water holes in the rain. Where would we leave our clothes, etc.? You need to bring or hire a spade. If you're not eager to put the work in, that's okay, just come by and walk amongst the hot water - the tide needs to be low, but you can see the steam and the tracks the hot water leaves in the sand. And it is hot!
