Yes it is open to the public, it is managed by the Local Government. What's in the island is just the sandbar, and a light house. No restrooms, no place to stay, but we are allowed to picnic, we can bring our own food, tent, there is no permanent structure except the light house. The best time to go there is at 5 in the morning and leave at 9 because it will be very hot.

Where is this exactly?
There are a lot of sandbars located in my country but they are a couple of hours away from the city.

soaking at the seawater has a lot of health benefits, it also increases metabolism.

@sophie09 , yes I did enjoy it. It's worth it even if we have to wake up early to get to the place before sunrise. It's not good to stay beyond 9 in the morning when the sun is up.
