Helpfulness
From this picture, you should get a good sense of how rugged the beach substrate is. It's made up of large coral pieces which have broken off the fringing reefs surrounding the island. These pieces make their way to shore and accumulate to create this large beaches. In the hot sun, these pieces of broken coral can get quite hot, and on top of it, they're not very comfortable to walk on. As such, I suggest wearing a pair of aqua-shoes as they will keep your feet protected. Flip-flop sandals (thongs) are not suggested because your feet will slide in them and occasionally meet the scalding substrate.

The coral is beautiful and will make you want to snorkel for hours... however, if you get too close to it, you will get a nasty cut. (I have a scar to prove it) ;)
