03 · Location

In context.

A north-facing beach beneath white limestone cliffs, with a sandy beach break giving lefts and rights across most of the shore and a limestone reef section at the eastern end that can produce longer rides. Surfing, bodyboarding, windsurfing and sea kayaking take place unzoned. Rideable at all tides, though rocks show at low tide and eastern-end caves can be cut off by an incoming tide. Lifeguards patrol July-August; dogs are banned 1 June-15 September.
