The beach presents a delightful covered gazebo, an ideal spot for a yoga class if you prefer not to have it on the sand. The area is pristine, impeccably maintained, and not overly populated. The only drawback is the absence of restroom amenities.

The beach was equipped with a dingy restroom that seemed to have seen better days. The only redeeming quality was the abundance of private space, which was probably due to the lack of visitors. It was a ghost town, with no signs of life or activity. The free parking was a small consolation, but it hardly made up for the dreary atmosphere. The only thing of interest were the sea shells scattered along the shore, but even they couldn't make up for the overall lackluster experience.

4 Frustrating

Perhaps due to the time of year, the beach was covered in an excessive amount of seaweed and algae, which made it quite unpleasant to visit. The stench emanating from the seaweed was quite nauseating. In comparison to other beaches on the east coast of Florida, this one was the most disappointing. Additionally, the sand and surf were littered with debris, which detracted from the natural beauty of the area. The restrooms were also unpleasant due to an unpleasant odor.

During our stay at KOA west, we decided to take a drive to this stunning beach. The crystal-clear water and breathtaking scenery left us in awe. Despite its popularity, the beach wasn't overcrowded, which made for a peaceful and enjoyable experience. One of the best things about this beach was the privacy it offered, allowing us to relax and unwind without any disturbance. Additionally, the convenience of having showers and bathrooms within walking distance was a great added bonus. Overall, we had an amazing time at this beach and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene and picturesque getaway.

The beach is absolutely stunning, with the added convenience of free parking nearby and easily accessible bathrooms. It's been a while since I've experienced such tranquility, and this beach certainly delivered. I visited on a weekday, which meant very little foot traffic and a sense of serenity that's hard to come by.
