Arashi Beach can be found near the northwest end of the island. It’s a relatively small beach, but there’s plenty of sand to stretch out on. New palapa huts have been built along with a convenient parking lot, too. Take a look.
Now that is an inviting scene. Picture yourself stretched out there, or frolicking in the water, or chatting with a friend. Dare I mention reading a good book? I could name a few. Anyway, to get to Arashi Beach, you simply drive along the main road toward to the lighthouse until you come to the appropriately labeled wall that looks like this:
And you have arrived at a little slice of paradise. Enjoy it responsibly and always use sunscreen!
Bon dia.

They do a great job bottling Coke on the island. The flavor is perfect, as is the carbonation. The bubbles are a necessity, and plenty of them are required. I won’t have it any other way and have been known to fire off nasty letters to any bottler I suspect of not producing the product as intended.

Upon arrival, you go inside and pay, at this time Afl. 14.50 (about $8 US). You’ll get a ticket like this:
Then you’re back outside in line where some nice ladies will ladle in the food like this:
The Sunday BBQ meal includes a small mountain of fried rice, potato salad, several pieces of roast chicken and about half a rack of ribs. Upon arrival at my shack, I launched into that food and forgot to take another photo. If you’ve been out and about all morning and missed breakfast, then the Hot Take-Away Sunday BBQ is a great way to fill up. You can’t beat the price for the volume. Be sure to have the cholesterol limiting pharmaceutical of choice on hand, however. This food is not light.
