We go to this beach with motorcycle from Dawei and had to drive near 3 hours with 80 kilo speed.Driver need to skillful and must be patient due to Dawei-LongLon Highway Road is full with big cars.The road is mostly straight from Dawei to Grand Father Beach until one fifth of the path.Around 30 mins before we reach to that beach,we had to go around mountain and can feel the freshness of the cool air.After arrived to the beach,we saw that the beach with nature beauty and blue sea.We can eat fish and other aquatics at the shop located at the corner of the coast.

Pristine beach with very few people. Has got some strong rips in some sections. So must be careful. We went there on the road that everyone takes that is long and extremely rocky. It took 2 hours. So one our return, to Dawei, we decided to follow the satellite image leading straight from Nabule to Yebyu. The road does not yet appear on the normal road images but it saved us at least 30 minutes driving time and the road is 100 times better.
