Basecamp and facilities
The beach features limited facilities; there are no permanent structures for comfort. A nearby parking lot can accommodate production vehicles, but be prepared to carry equipment down a path to the beach. Plan to bring all necessary supplies and facilities, including restrooms and refreshments.
Risk factors
The beach can be subject to high tides and strong currents, presenting potential risks for those close to the water's edge. Care should be taken when filming near the cliffs, as rockfalls can occasionally occur. Additionally, changes in weather can affect lighting and filming conditions.
