Sights:

Besides the beach, the only other site that people from the hostel visit is a weird old man who has some crazy ass house in a cave that is actually a restaurant that was abandoned after part of the cave it was in collapsed. I hear he is quite the character and the place is supposed to have some wild decorations.

My Thoughts on this City:

Wilderness was "ok". It would be a lot better for a couple who wanted to rent a private room in one of the nicer hotels or vacation rentals, but as a backpacker staying in a hostel, it doesn't have much of anything to offer unless you want to spend all day laying on an average beach.
