courts,
which are almost always used
for pickup games. The
beach is almost
always too crowded for body boarding, surfing, or skim
boarding. This beach is mostly for
the younger
generation who enjoy laying out in the sun and socializing more than
the actual
beach aspect of it.
Main
Beach is also the center of the town, with hundreds of art galleries,
interesting
stores, and quaint little restaurants. In both directions from Main
Beach
you will find endless coves backed by rocky precipices.
There are dozens of beaches in these coves,
all of which are typically much less crowded than Main Beach.
Access
to these coves is often hard to
find, but chances are, if you pull into any neighborhood by the
beach and
walk towards the sound of water, you'll find them.
These are great beaches
for skim boarding
because they are typically empty. On
both sides of most of the coves you will typically find black or
brownish rocks you can
walk
out onto. These
sometimes reveal other
coves that are not accessible by other means.
If your at the beach, don't be afraid to explore
around, you'll be
amazed at what you see.
