Sandy Cove Park can be hard to find, but that’s a good thing. In the midst of summer the small beach is crowded enough without everyone knowing about it. The sandy beach offers great swimming opportunity and there is also a shady grass space behind the beach for those seeking shade. There is also a resident seal who often keeps an eye on the swimmers! Make sure you go when the tide is down, otherwise the beach shrinks substantially.
