  • Great place to watch the waves, sound of the roaring ocean wave after wave. Lots of surfers, tidal pools at low tide. Nice beach to sit and chill or build sandcastles with kids. Lots of room for dogs....  more

  • A must if you are visiting Pacific Rim. *The beach is actually a private property. *Has paid parking *Access through the breezeway on the left hand side of the washroom *Very busy even on weekdays *The waves are great for surfing
  • Amazing beach that is an easy walk from the parking lot, parking lot also fills up fast at peak times
  • This is such a special beach. We went to watch the sunset one night and to surf. Perfection! Be prepared to walk about 1.5km to the beach. 🤙🏄‍♀️
  • This was by far the easiest beach to get to out of all the beaches I went to. To be fair all the trails or beaches I went to did not have a fee. The beach was nice and not too crowded. I went in the colder times so not many people around. Very pretty beach:)
  • An amazing beach! There are better beaches to learn how to surf, tricky to get out past the break. But for hanging out, playing with your dog or family, this is a great choice.
