The water here is extremely shallow: at low tide the sea retreats to the horizon, exposing hundreds of square metres of Kei’s famous white sand. A short walk (or a canoe trip, depending on the tide), from the far end of the beach you can see some mysterious figures and symbols painted in red on the cliff face overhanging the water.The image sit high above the water one can make out some that resemble human eyes and figura, animals, and a canoe. The local villagers do not know who drew these pictures, nor what they mean, nearby are some caves, one of whics is considered sacred, and is called vid Nit, or the door of death.
