User reviews
"An ideal spot to enjoy a day out, the beach here is a gem. The restroom facilities were well-maintained and hygienic, which is always a plus. Although the prices of the food were a bit steep, it's not unusual for a location like this to charge a premium. The beach was serene, uncluttered, and spotless, making it an excellent spot to unwind and relax."

"What an absolute gem of a beach! The sand is as soft as butter, the view is breathtaking and the location is superb (not to mention the amazing Holy Cow ice cream shop nearby). We arrived early and stayed until about 3:00 pm, enjoying an early dinner and some ice cream before returning to the beach for low tide and the sunset. I was blown away by the abundance of sand dollar..."
