The beach offers breathtaking vistas, but let's not kid ourselves, it's really only worth visiting if you're into kiting or surfing. Don't bother coming here if you're just looking to lounge around and soak up some sun - this isn't that kind of beach. But if you're a thrill-seeker looking for some serious waves, then this is the spot for you. Just don't expect any frills or amenities - it's all about the sport here.

The picturesque scenery of the beach is truly captivating, with its stunning view that is located in close proximity to the Wishtoyo Indian land. The beauty of this place is beyond words, and it is a natural wonder that must be experienced firsthand.

I am absolutely enamored with this beach. It was my first time here, and I was struck by how pristine and tranquil it was. The atmosphere was perfect for meditation, and I found myself returning for a six-hour session. The meditation techniques I use require a comfortable surface to lie on, and this beach provided just that. I particularly recommend Vagus Nerve Exercises for anxiety relief, as well as Allen Watts-Guided Meditation (Awakening the mind) on YouTube for beginners. Although the huts were washed out by the water on my second visit, I am still eager to return to this beautiful location.

Frequented by surfers, the beach is a well-known spot. The surroundings are slightly more developed than my preference, but if you venture northwards, you can find a secluded patch of sand to call your own. Street parking is available, and entry is free unless you arrive with your family, in which case you'll need to pay for parking. The beach boasts picnic tables and portable restrooms, but unfortunately, there are no Yogi Bears in sight. Overall, it's a great spot to soak up the sun and enjoy the waves.
