8 Very good

A place where you can swing and enjoy the salty breeze...or not. This particular beach seems to have missed the memo on wind, as there was nary a gust to be felt. But fear not, for the lack of wind only adds to the charm of this great beach. So go ahead, kick off your shoes and sink your toes into the sand. Just don't expect to fly a kite anytime soon.
