What people say
Beach access was through the back of people's houses. We felt not very nice parking in that area so we park further. Sand was a bit dirty. It is relatively secluded area. Great location to watch sunrise. Close to the sunset beach.
The worst beach ever theirs toads in the water and the sand is mud and quick sand , my mum got stuck in the sand and nearly had a panic attack
