general information
Narrow west facing beach that can produce fun waves on a mid-sized west to south west swell, but closes out when it gets big. Cliffs at the southern end offer some protection from southerly winds, so may be your best option if the wind is howling. Mid to high tide is the go here, offering fairly safe wave, friendly for beginners which also attracts the goat-boating community. Good parking and nice outlook means it does draw a crowd in summer.
