User reviews
"This beach is absolutely stunning and picturesque. It's perfect for unwinding and capturing some great photos. A few of us packed a picnic with food and blankets and enjoyed it on the grassy area. You can also choose to swim in the river or the ocean. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we can't wait to return."
Lysander Everhart
"The beach is stunning with horses, peacocks, and a sandy shore where the river meets. It's a historic spot, once a port and battle site. You can go rafting and enjoy a beachside spa. The museum was closed on Sunday, but we saw some artifacts outside."
