Reviewed By MarkandKarenHunter - Windsor, Canada
Visited this beach several times while staying at the Cape View Motel and cottages. The beach is sandy and very clean. My family enjoyed the sandpipers and the waves. The beach has a slow slope making it wonderful for playing in the waves or enjoying your time with small children. There were very few people there during our visits. There was also a place you could rent surfboards as well as a snack bar, both near the road just off the beach. A very pleasant experience.
