Food scene

Set amongst a lush bamboo forest Bamboo Buddha is a lovely tranquil spot to enjoy a coffee. Great vegan and vegetarian food options. A bit of drive from Bensville (approx. 20min drive) though well worth it.

Sightseeing

A short walk leads to this absolutely stunning beach. Only accessible by foot, it's a much quieter spot if you prefer to stay away from the crowds. It's a steep descent into the beach via a number of stairs so make sure you wear a pair of decent walking shoes and pack some water. You won't be disappointed by the view on the way in, nor the beautiful, clear & calm water that awaits you!
