A typical view of the ria coastline unfolds. Part of the rock has caved in, creating a narrow channel between the sheer cliffs, which is eroded by the waves of the Pacific Ocean. Waves change the topography over many years. You can catch a glimpse of nature's creation. The nearby garden is a hidden spot for camellias.
