The beach is wide and uncrowded with a dramatic cinder cone at one end. The shore break can be powerful so this beach is better for older kids who are strong swimmers. Bodyboarding here is excellent when the waves are right. The sand is incredibly soft and the overall beauty of the setting is stunning. Sunset here is a show. Little Beach, over the hill, is more protected for younger kids but can be clothing-optional.
