I recommend exploring the hiking trails around Balos for some amazing views. Trust me, the ship takes ages and the views from the hike are 100% worth it!

My advice is to arrive by 10:30 AM instead of the afternoon. You’ll enjoy the beach with fewer crowds and it’s much easier to find a good spot.

I think renting an umbrella is a must, or else you’ll roast! But be careful, some places charge high prices. Bargain a bit if you can!
