The breathtaking vistas from this beach are truly remarkable. Be sure to catch a glimpse of the magnificent rock formation that protrudes into the crashing waves. Simply take a leisurely stroll down to the sandy shoreline and make your way towards the southern end of the beach.

Accessing the beach was a breeze, and we found plenty of parking spots even on a busy Saturday afternoon. The beach was immaculately clean and pleasantly uncrowded, providing us with an ideal spot to enjoy ourselves. We had a wonderful time soaking up the sun and sea breeze.

This serene and expansive beach boasts impressive waves that make it an ideal destination for surfing enthusiasts. However, it is important to exercise caution when taking on the waves. Sadly, there was a recent incident where a child went missing, so it is crucial to keep a watchful eye on loved ones. There are over 20 parking spots available along the road, but it is worth noting that there are no restroom facilities, not even portable ones, which can be a major inconvenience for families with young children. It is recommended to bring a trash bag as there are no trash cans on the beach, only in the parking lot. On the right side of the beach, visitors may be lucky enough to spot some fascinating sea creatures, such as crabs and jellyfish. During our visit, we were fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of a charming sea lion.

The location is simply breathtaking. I parked my vehicle by the roadside and set up my rooftop tent. The panoramic vista of the shoreline is absolutely stunning.

The beach offers a picturesque sandy shoreline, adorned with charming barks, comfortable benches, and elevated seating areas. The sunset is truly breathtaking, creating a serene atmosphere that is perfect for setting up camp with your loved ones, including your furry friends. However, the nearby busy highway can be a bit of a distraction, as the passing vehicles generate some noise that can disrupt the otherwise tranquil ambiance.
