The beach was a sight to behold, with lush green trees and pristine waters that sparkled in the sunlight. It had an air of seclusion that made it feel like a hidden gem. However, my excitement was short-lived when I realized that the road leading to the beach was in a deplorable state, making it impossible to drive all the way there. Instead, I had to park my car by the main road and walk for what seemed like an eternity. The path was flat, but the walk was far from easy. To top it off, the beach was completely deserted in mid-September, which only added to the eerie feeling of isolation.
