03 · Location

In context.

A 1.6 km Atlantic sand beach with scattered shale and rock sections exposed at lower tides, at the edge of a protected natural park. A beach break offers left and right waves, needing a fairly large swell as a nearby peninsula shelters it from the biggest Atlantic swells; best season September-May. Consistent cross-shore wind suits kite and windsurfing, though exposed rocks at low tide are a launch hazard. Lifeguards patrol 15 June-15 September.
