Before the highway was built, the beach was the only way to travel along this stretch of coast. The original stagecoach road still has wheel ruts carved into the rock around the point.

You can get around the point only at low tide and you'll probably have to do some wading too. This location is named because you have to hug the cliff to get past it. It's easy to get stranded at mid to high tide. Be aware of the tides.
