Comments:-
Mar 09, AP - There was a good number of people camping in the grounds, but I only had enough time to take a few shots. I could have gone naked on the beach, as it was disserted, but my time had run out, unfortunately.
Nov 07, SX - A beautiful place - not a soul around - good surf, and fishing too.
