Facilities here are good and camping is allowed. There is a nice protected little cove for the kids to splash around in but most water activities are discouraged because of the year round high surf. The rigged picturesque coastline can be enjoyed from a hilltop shelter. The surf is calm so this is a great beach for young children. The sand is white and snorkeling is good, especially outside the inner bay.
Access is from the pier.
There is paid parking at the hotel and free parking around town. But the sand returns in Spring to produce a white sandy beach. This is a favorite body boarding spot recommended for experienced boarders only. A good shore diving entry is 100 yards south at the white coral beach. Depths from 2 to 60 feet with caverns and lava tubes.
