Walk the beach to the river mouth, then head inland for short hikes to pools and small falls. There are a couple of low-key bars by the road for a drink and a plate of local food.
Arriving at Batalie Bay feels like stepping into a secluded paradise. The bay is tucked away, surrounded by lush, green hills that create a sense of privacy and peace. The entrance can be a bit narrow, so approach with care, but once inside, the bay opens up into a spacious, sheltered area perfect for anchoring.
The anchorage itself is set in a sandy bottom with some areas of rock, so it’s wise to scout your spot carefully and ensure a good hold. The protection here is generally excellent from most directions, offering a calm and secure environment for a restful night.
