1 - Coconut tree spot

2 - Parrot rock
The parrot rock takes its name from its shape seen from the sky evoking the bird. It is a rock where you can climb at low tide (beware though, I almost lost my drone and our phones thinking that the water was low enough ahah) Access is free and offers a nice 360 degree view.

3 - Secret Beach
Aaaaah Secret Beach ... a little corner of paradise. As its name suggests, it is not known, tiny, and access is very difficult. I advise you to master the motorbike because the descent, the dirt roads, bumps and other dangers will be part of it. You have to deserve it! But the game is worth it, a small cove of turquoise water, tranquility (despite a small hut that acts as a bar) and a moment of calm at sunset ...
Take the opportunity to chat or play with the locals! These are unforgettable moments ..
Search for Secret Beach Bar on Google Maps to access it.

7 - Go to Jungle Beach
Jungle Beach is a wild beach literally next to the jungle where the locals like to meet. Take your masks and snorkels for snorkelling!
Park your scooter at the Japanese Peace Pagoda and take the time to visit it for free. Then walk down to the beach otherwise the "parking" is chargeable!
