you'll need to negotiate entry to the hotel and take it from there
Atmosphere
lonely spot, water is often murky and seems sharky but there'll be someone on the beach to tell the story...
General
the right off the point is good when it gets to 2m if there's plenty of sand under it. the far end of the beach is worth checking but the local villages will have to asked for permission.
