👍👍 I dont want to ruin surprises but this beach is definitely worth seeking out, whether you pack it in for the day, or stop by for a morning walk. Mostly secluded, local favorite, dogs are super friendly and the views are superb.

Public beach
👍👍 A great beach even though the water is cold and there are sharks (supposedly). It's relatively low traffic so it's a great retreat for wildlife observation of just to collect your thoughts
