"there’s no beach walking"? We enjoy beach walking very much there (over a mile long!) so not sure what you mean. Like any beach the weather affects the enjoyment, sorry yours wasn't the best. Beachbums like us have quite a bit wider margin I suppose. For sure, one needs to be prepared with chairs, umbrellas, etc. Just depends on what you are looking for and how you define "Tourist". IMHO many people into our naturist lifestyle are happy to find ANY compatible beaches these days, and are willing to travel a ways to enjoy same.
