The sea is unpolluted and scenery is beautiful as you can see the mountains of Baluchistan. Dolphins also swim close to the shoreline. However be careful of 'blue bottles' in Sept/Oct. They sting like hell

Great view of the sea, but this area needed a good scrub. The sand ad plastic pellets and other rubbish in it. I'd return for the view alone - that's how nice it is.

Due to the poor roads and the un maintained conditions of the beach i personally might not go there, except if i had no other option left and do not have to stay there for more than an hour or so.....Beautiful beach but is not maintained or further reconstructed.....

You will find rowdy crowd here, more at Paradise point. Police will be on your toes if you are with lady. Not a place to relax any more.

Pro's: clean beach, clean huts, family atmosphere on weekends, pretty safe as well.. Con's: the proximity of the huts to each other, privacy can be a little bit of an issue when the beach is crowded, beach CAN be crowded on weekends, a little stonier than sands pit..
