    Tips

    Hiking

    This beach is beautiful, with plenty of beachcombing, tide pools accessible at low tide and plenty of black sand. It is a perfect spot to watch the sunset and enjoy the views of the fantastic rock formations and the Pacific Ocean. The sound of the waves hitting the large rocks is very relaxing, making this spot a great place to take a break and spend quality time taking in the scenery.
