“The location is what sells this place: right on the ocean, where both sunrise and sunset can be admired. I think it's a great opportunity to meet other travelers and gaze at a star-filled sky at night; the low-light policy definitely enhances the experience. It's a clean, safe, and fun place for those who want to experience the ocean.”
