Back on the boat, you will sail to Xi beach, ranked among the strangest beaches in the world mainly due to its truly unique scenery. It is characterized by its gray rocky hills (20-30 meters high) surrounding the beach and reddish-brown sand.

Gray clay, according to ancient and modern scientists, has medicinal properties that can cure skin ailments and heal wounds.
