    Just fish bait lying everywhere 🙄
  • By Tristan Hall
    Particularly good on the week days. If you get there early you can find a parking outside the Beverly Hills Hotel right close to the steps heading down to the beach. Generally clean beaches and warm water. Quite rocky but fantastic place for the kids to build sandcastles. Lighthouse makes for great photos as well as the pier.

    Amazing beach, pets are allowed. Great views all around. The Whale Bone pier is especially a must-see for all first time visitors. Enjoy a beautiful walk on the promenade or a dip in the warm Indian Ocean, North Coast living at it's finest!

    A place to tune into my Higher Power - Mother Nature. Observe the natural beauty and be mesmerized by the Dolphin fins popping above the water and the smell of the sea. 👣🌊🐬
