Name: This beach is a hidden gem, tucked away in a secluded cove. The water is incredibly clear and teeming with fish, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling. Despite strong winds, the cove provides a sheltered area, free from crashing waves. However, just beyond the cove, the water can get quite choppy. To access this beach, you'll need to embark on a 20-minute hike from the Abraham's Bosom catpark, following the signs for Wreck Walk.
