A highlight of our week along the coast! The tide pools were excellent and, best of all, EMPTY. We had the beach to ourselves early one chilly morning, at low tide, and had a great time. The walk down to the beach is only about 20 minutes. Beware! As this was our first visit to a tide pool we rated... More

Enderts Beach is not a swimming beach. It's a wild beach that requires a short 1 mile walk.
