This beach is likely the best one on the island, especially in the southern half. There are ample parking spots available and a food truck on site. The surrounding trees add to the beach's aesthetics and prevent it from looking like a barren desert meeting the ocean. It's a great spot to visit by car, bike, or on foot. Additionally, during low tide, it's an ideal location for on-foot fishing.
