Back Beach

Back Beach Looking East

Description:

Back Beach Beach (looking north), easterly exposure, is a easy sandy entry. Sandy bottom, shallow depths (15 to 30 feet). Sloping bedrock on left side of beach (facing ocean), with pretty rock ledges. Be careful of the strong currents and watch for boat traffic near the point on the left (by the entrance to the cove). Plenty of metered parking and restrooms.
