- The Tidal Sandbar: This is what the beach is known for. At low tide the sea retreats a long way, leaving rippled flats and tidal pools you can walk across. Check a tide table, because at high tide the effect is gone.
- Boardwalk Through the Pines: The approach is a wooden walkway through pine forest and mangrove edges. It is shaded, quiet and full of birdsong, and it opens suddenly onto the white sand and water.
- Shallow-Water Wading and Starfish Spotting: The warm, clear shallows are very calm, so you can wade out slowly and look for starfish, small fish and sand dollars. Move gently and leave the animals in the water.
- Beachcombing Along the Shore: Shells, sea fans and driftwood collect along the waterline, and the long, empty stretches reward an unhurried walk. Pale sand and mostly flat light

- Picnic Under the Casuarinas: With no vendors on the beach, a packed lunch under the trees becomes the daytime ritual. Bring water, snacks and trash bags. There is no nightlife here, so plan to leave by late afternoon.
