Why it's interesting

A 25-minute forest scramble doubles as the beach's door policy. No shacks, no crowds, no bins, so whatever you carry in, you carry out. Start before 9 AM, bring 2L of water each. Best October to February. Night bioluminescence is seasonal; politeness isn't.

Overview

A 25-minute forest scramble opens onto a white-sand cove framed by cliffs, with water so clear boats look like they're floating on air. No shacks, no crowds — pack in, pack out.
