 Beach
Type:
- Sand
Size:
- Medium

Hazards:
- Bystanders
Beach crowds:
- None


Unpopulated long stretch of beach in a straight coast. Plenty of space to launch. Beach is wide enough for launching even with high tide, some trees to pay attention to during high tide, but in general comfortable launches/recoveries. On Sundays people stroll down the beach and curiosity could be a factor, but they are absolutely friendly. Big bay, about 9 km across.
