I wouldn't say the beach walk is nice, it's really not along pristine beaches with terrific views. You need to make sure you check the tide tables and go during low tide, otherwise you'll be climbing through thickets and walking through piles of dead sea grass. With the tide out, at least you can walk on relatively soft sand for the majority of the time, but on the land side you're often walking along a chain link fenceline with trash, debris and abandoned condo developments. Up on the shore a few yards there's also a public walking trail for a portion of it, we passed a few people with backpacks and earphones on their way somewhere on the public trail, they didn't seem to notice us. You'll also come across a developed beach area used by the cruise ships, so take along a coverup to put on to get past that part. Even when there aren't any cruisers around there are a couple of security guards that seemingly enjoyed my wife's walk across their beach. It's a fun thing to do since you can't do it many other places, but once was enough for us.
