Guide
Good to know
Come in March or fall
Visit during shoulder seasons when the beach is particularly uncrowded and peaceful.
Excellent for wildlife observation
Watch for nesting seabirds, dolphins, and fish in the clear water, especially if you enjoy photography.
Visit late afternoon for solitude
Arrive around 4pm or later to find significantly fewer crowds than midday beaches.
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 2 visitors · 2023–2026
Bring your own supplies
Pack water, snacks, chairs, and trash bags since there are no restaurants, restrooms, or garbage cans.
Expect strong waves sometimes
Check conditions before swimming as waves can be rough and rip currents present a hazard.
