The video, which has garnered over 5.7 million views, depicts a tranquil scene with bathers enjoying the calm ocean. Many viewers expressed awe at the clarity of the water, with one comment stating, "Patar Beach water is so clear." However, the video has also sparked a debate among those familiar with the area.
