Scott Creek Beach

Nude sunbathers and suited swimmers and surfers mix it up in a genial way at beautiful Scott Creek Beach, which features a lagoon and a large stream in the middle of the sand most of the year. Bring a book or a picnic and enjoy the scenery and the half-mile-long beach, which, except for hot summer days, is usually peaceful and devoid of crowds.

Best time
Warm sunny days.
Crowd
