Accessible solely through the historic Smugglers Tunnel, this beach offers an experience unlike any other, combining history, adventure, and stunning natural beauty. The Smugglers Tunnel, an old passage carved into the cliffs, features steep slopes and narrow walkways that descend dramatically towards the shoreline. While the confined space and uneven steps may initially intimidate some, those who brave the trek are greeted by breathtaking views of a sheltered cove embraced by towering cliffs.
