## Travel Guide

![I'm sure this place has a proper name since it is so popular. You can park your car on the side of the road, walk down a well cleared path, complete with man made natural stairs ( that's an oxymoron but it's the best way to describe it) it's a very narrow clean beach between two gigantic rock formatiosn. Very stunning though this picture doesn't do it justice, it's an odd place to shoot. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248635975868418/1a7dfc4f-8b27-44df-9652-45bdf0c48449.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh)
