It's a great beach, the volcanic sand is black, the rocky arc frames perfectly the sunset, plus the major beach next to it is pretty cool with a bar nestled inside a cave.

Photography Tips

Skip July and August to avoid the crowd ( this pic was taken in August ) . This is not a cave so the sun lights up the beach during the day erasing the "cave" effect to the scene. waiting the late afternoon is the best.
