Exquisitely beautiful beach. 30 mins from Oysterhouse. From the car park walk to the look out to see the view in either direction and then take a pick as to whether you want to walk left or right, both are fantastic. If you walk to the right you will be entering a bird sanctuary where birds nest in the dunes. A pristine, magnificent beach. Impossible to beat.
