About

This beach is a local favorite, especially for surfers. It is beautiful and clean, but parking is a major challenge. Get there early if you want a spot. The facilities are convenient, and the beach is great for a walk or just relaxing. It is a bit crowded in the summer, but the vibe is generally good.
