The little beach is right down the street! Literally walk out the front door, and you will be sitting on the beach in 10 minutes. The views are incredible, even though this is a small beach, great for families with little kids. All ages come here at sunset to watch the sun go down. Perfect for a sunset get-together and have a glass of wine!
