Make sure to build it under a tree. It helps create a comfortable and cool nuance. Make sure to build it before night. Thus, you can rest immediately. A trip to the island indeed is tiring. You need to replenish your stamina prior to doing some fun activities in the next day.

In the morning, it is time to explore the beach. It has a stunning underwater view. Don’t be careless, though. There are many sea urchins nearby.
