About
Hurtige fakta: Jagged granite stacks rise from the shoreline, offering cliffside ledges where you can hear waves explode and watch tide pools sparkle with tiny crabs. Locals love to point out a giant-shaped rock formation and the viewpoint delivers sweeping sea vistas, dramatic sunsets, and surprisingly few tourists at sunrise.
Højdepunkter: Climb the worn steps to the stacked black granite formations and you’ll hear the sea thud back like a drum every time a 1.5-meter wave slams into the rocks, sending salty spray three meters high. Locals tuck tiny glass beads and folded paper boats into the crevices as offerings to an old fisherman’s spirit named Ong Ba, a quirky tradition said to calm the waters for seven days after a storm.
Insider tips
- Wear closed-toe shoes with good grip, rocks can be uneven and slippery.
- Arrive at sunrise or late afternoon for best light and far fewer visitors.
- Keep to marked paths and respect the seaside shrine, avoid climbing fragile rock formations.
- Bring sunscreen, water and a small towel, little shade and sea spray can be surprising.
