I had an amazing time at this beach. It was really enjoyable to be able to run from the river to the ocean and back again.

The beach was fascinating, with the ocean's tides clearly visible on the shoreline and the river winding through the sand. The soothing sound of the ocean on one side, and the chirping of birds on the other, made for a peaceful atmosphere. The eucalyptus-scented forest path was particularly enjoyable, with dinosaur footprints adding to the experience. With good restaurants nearby, it's a great spot to visit - just avoid holidays! Today, the estuary of the river looked particularly stunning.
