I understand that my three-star rating of this popular spot might make you wonder, "What's wrong with her? Everyone loves Chapel Beach." But let me explain why I wasn't impressed. Initially, I was captivated by the stunning view of the Chapel Rock tree. We saw it from the water during a kayaking tour and decided we needed to explore the area on foot. Unfortunately, that turned out to be a disappointing experience. The trail was long, easy, and frankly, boring, with only a couple of attractive spots like a waterfall and a hidden lake. While the Chapel Rock tree was incredible, it looked far more impressive from the water than from the land. As for the beach, we had hoped to swim there, but that was absolutely impossible due to the HORSEFLIES. There were swarms of them, and they stung us relentlessly, despite having used off-spray before stepping onto the beach. We retreated as quickly as possible, leaving the area to the horseflies. As a result, I no longer think of it as Chapel Beach; to me, it's now Horsefly Beach.
