The beach has abundant shells and visitors regularly find shark teeth within short periods of searching.
Visit for sunset and drum circle
Wednesday and Saturday evenings feature a drum circle around sunset that draws crowds for live percussion and community atmosphere.

The lot fills quickly on weekends and busy days, though overflow parking is available across the street.
Wear water shoes for comfort
The beach has crushed shells rather than soft sand, making the ground rough underfoot when walking.
