About

Visitors love the views and the chill vibe here, especially for sunsets and dolphin watching. It is a classic spot for a walk and some local snacks. The biggest complaint is the lack of a full pier due to past storm damage, which leaves some tourists feeling a bit let down. Locals also mention that parking is a nightmare during peak times. Still, it remains a beautiful place to grab a drink and enjoy the breeze.

The view is spot on for a morning coffee.

It is a shame the pier is gone, but the area is still nice.

Parking is a real headache, get there early.
