Although the parking lot may be petite, the beach itself is not overcrowded, allowing for a serene atmosphere. The sand is also quite substantial, providing a pleasant experience. Overall, it was a rather enjoyable beach day.

Due to the overcast weather, the black sand beach didn't quite reveal its full beauty to me. Despite this, I could still appreciate its potential to be stunning on a sunny day. It was a relief to find the beach relatively empty, allowing for a peaceful and secluded experience. However, there was a noticeable amount of campers nearby.

4 Frustrating

The beach is adorned with gravel instead of black sand, giving it a rustic countryside vibe. The temperature can be a bit chilly, but that only adds to the charm of this serene haven. The road leading to the beach is a one-lane path, adding to the secluded feel of the area. However, there is no need to worry about parking fees, as visitors can park their vehicles and enjoy a leisurely walk. The peaceful atmosphere of this beach makes it the perfect spot for those seeking a tranquil escape.

I had high expectations for this beach, but unfortunately it fell short. The gray fine pebbles were a unique feature, but overall the experience was underwhelming.
