I walked there most mornings from the village for a swim in the "pool" in the sea many mornings when we were there. If you use satellite view on google maps you can scope out the trail before you get there. You will see the pool in that view, too.

I stubbed/bruised my little toe really badly on the last day of my stay. I just took it as an indicator that I shouldn't be leaving that day. (although I still had to leave). Don't Postpone JOY
