"This place is nothing like what is shown on the maps. High tide covers the rocky ledges, and the volcanic stones are a hazard, as evidenced by the many memorials at the cliff where people have tragically slipped and fallen."

Philipa

"That place has its charm, but the rocks and pebbles can be a bit of a nuisance. There's an undeniable fishy odor in certain spots, but overall it's not a bad spot to visit."
