The undeveloped, scenic yellow beach is dotted with rocks and reefs of all shapes and sizes, which were formed from volcanic lava cooled by seawater.

When the tide is low, the entrance to the cave is exposed, making it the best time to come explore and take photos. Visiting in summer is recommended, as the water and sky are clearer. This is especially true if you want to take pictures at sunrise and sunset.
