But this beach is so beautiful! Look at the clear water and clouds!
I would not give this place a pass if I could, seriously!

I guess it would have to take time before tourists take chances in coming here, despite all the beauty and serenity. Sometimes, one’s safety is number one consideration when looking for a place to visit. But that one incident has ruined this place’s reputation and that is a pity.

Wow. The place (and the picture, of course!) looks fantastic! Too bad, mahirap sya puntahan because of the “danger”.
