Very interesting question. It depends where you are and which beach are you heading to as there are many high point and different beaches. We drove all the way to the end. It has a small viillage plus beach then goes up on a cliff with spectacular view, then down to another small village with a beach access then to another cliff. There is a viewing point with a cafe that you may want to stop by. View is nice. Go watch sunset. When we stayed at a villa, going way backend of the villa is a restaurant cafe and the beach is just right in front. My suggestion is to choose a hotel or villa that is on beachfront so you get the cliff view on one side and the beach to laze about. Also get one with swimming pool in case current strong and you can just use the pool at anytime. You may want to check out blue moon villa or only you villa. We did not stay there in BM but stayed at OY years back. This time, we visited the cafe opposite BM There are many private villas there. We saw one with thatched roof and looks great at hilltop. Understand u can walk to the beach. Many tourists rent a bike but you need to be careful cos steep hills and roads twist and turn. Some even attempt to walk but in the evening gets really dark...some parts no street lamp. So bring a battery torchlight For ladies, avoid walking alone at night. Amed is a place for deep sea diving or just to hideaway for a while. Hope everyone will have great time.
