Went there yesterday. It¨s almost a paradise. Clear water for bathing with small fishes around, excelent view. Pictures show you a part of it. One important thing to point out which disappoints are the charges (almost US$15,00) for using chairs and sun umbrella at the beach, unless you pay around 35 US$ for a fish snack which is unbelievably expensive...
