Beautiful view to soak up while running the dogs! Have never seen a misbehaving dog and the owners are more responsible than some other places when cleaning up after them. If your dog doesn’t listen too commands perhaps not the best place as not fenced alongside the road.

It is one of the best views I have ever come. My mates and I went there while we ate our lunch and it was a very good experience. We were able to see an amazing view of the beach. I will definitely consider coming back in the future.
