Many under water rocks. Polluted. Tidal beach. Flat to choppy. Several sandbars. Moving sands, polluted as heck. The beach is very long and wide (when the tide is out!) with hard sand. The tide is constantly changing the shape of the beach and as a result creates wide sand banks that vary in height. Anything from N to E to S Water 3mm suit for summer, 5mm suit for winter gloves and booties recommended for December to March. 11 month season. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop. Features: Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
