Monkey beach makes a list because of its beautiful secluded mountains, warm rays, and scenic waters. Snorkeling is a favorite pastime here for visitors who are looking to explore the area. Travelers are advised to arrive early though to avoid the possibility of other tourists looking to take advantage of this unique area. Also, there are plenty of furry visitors who may be looking to inspect your belongings, but they are not what one may expect. These mysterious inspectors are the population of Macaque monkeys which are native to the island. Harmless and fun to watch, these little buddies tend to come down from their cliffs to visit from to time to time.
