Hyvä ranta, mutta jos ajat liian kauas sisääntulosta, suosittelisin 4x4-autoa. Onnistuimme tässä takavetoisella pakettiautollamme ilman ongelmia, mutta se tuntui hieman epävarmalta ajoittain. Myös autot ympärillä vaikuttivat hieman oudoilta. Pidä valppautesi yllä enemmän tällä rannalla, jos aiot leiriytyä tai pysäköi vain etualueelle, jos löydät pysäköintipaikan

Good beach, but if you drive too far off the entry area, I would suggest a 4x4 car. We did it in our rear wheel drive van with no issue, but it felt a little sketchy at times. Also, cars around seemed a little strange as well. Keep up your guard more at this beach for overnight camping or just park in the front area on the pavment if you can find parking

Viisi tähteä pelkästään kalastuksen vuoksi ja ei paljon ihmisiä aivan päälläsi. Jos tarvitset pääsyn kauppoihin, niitä ei ole täällä. Pysähdyimme tänne, koska olen vasta aloittamassa surffikalastusta ja olen aina nähnyt täällä kalastajia. Poikani ja minä pysähdyimme elokuun alussa ja palasimme takaisin syyskuun puolivälissä.

Gafftopsail's are FREAKING PLENTIFUL!!!! we did manage to get some nice bull reds, what we came for

Better off going down bolivar so you can actually access the beach without large obstructions in the water. The cross in the water is a main attraction.
