Real Beach (Pirate Bay)

Posted on August 14, 2025February 19, 2025 by Ultimate Guide

About: This is a beautiful, large, less crowded beach with tide pools surrounding a large rock connected to the beach. It is possible to walk all the way around the rock, though it is best to do so during low tide and with good shoes and physical ability. The road to reach this beach is long and unpaved, and can be bad especially during the rainy season, but it is well worth it.
