Guide
Good to know
Access via coastal footpath only
Reach the cove by walking a short trail from town rather than by vehicle or direct road.
Expect a very small cove
The beach is tiny, fitting perhaps a few groups at most, not a large crowd.
Go for quiet reflection, not swimming
Visitors report using the spot for naps and disconnecting rather than active beach activities.
Some shade is available
Visitors mention trees, cliffs or umbrellas to get out of the sun.Mentioned by 2 visitors · 2020–2026
Litter reported
Visitors mention rubbish on the sand.Mentioned by 3 visitors · 2020–2026
Bring water shoes or sandals
The cove floor is rocky and stony with seaweed, making bare feet uncomfortable.
Watch for the adjacent dog beach
A separate dog beach exists nearby; entering the cove itself with dogs may provoke conflict with a nearby resident.
