I will be as transparent with my opinion without the fluff so that anyone who chooses to visit Sandy Bay clothing optional beach will know what you wish to consider before going. This beach is in a remote spot with no access to amenities, including toilets.
- From the parking lot, you will walk uphill about 1/4 - 1/2 mile before walking downhill on unmarked paths created by other beach goers.
- You will be walking on a combination of sand, rocks, gravel and asphalt so be sure to pack water shoes for better grip in the sand especially.
- On the walk down, it will be about 25ish or so minutes but on the way back up, be prepared for a challenge because you will feel the burn in your legs as you’re activating your leg muscles. Degree of difficulty 1 to 5? Down 3, Going back up 5! My recommendation is to pack light to avoid the excess weight and reserve your water for the walk back up because you will need it.
Update on how instructing Uber:
I later learned from a local that the Uber driver took me the wrong parking area. See the picture I posted of the correct location to instruct your Uber driver- add the SANDY BAY PARKING and from there you will walk along the coast to secluded beach. I was dropped off at the wrong spot and walked the horrid route down and back up along the mountain.
- No access to toilets so avoid eating before you go to avoid the embarrassment of going in nature.
Overall it’s a nice beach once at the bottom and it’s remote BUT when I factored my hike down and back up because I was dropped off at the wrong parking lot, I’d opt for another sea where it’s more convenient. I gave 4 for the scene once at the bottom and if I had to rate everything else I explained, I’d rate 1 out of 5. Hopefully you may find this informational useful.
