It's the third time I've been here, 2018 was my first visit and I thought it was lovely. Quite beautiful, but annoyingly, some plastic trash.
I came here again in 2022 and ended up walking along the beach with a carrier bag, picking up rubbish. You may be getting the theme here....
So, It's still beautiful, but why isn't it cleaner? There's a river outfall one end that has dirty water from cafes etc running into it, and it smells really bad as you cross the bridge over the road. This time as I walked along the tide line I saw lots of small dead fish, all the same species, and dead crabs.
By the river where the tourist boats come in there was the usual plastic bottle and other detritus, remains of fruit peelings mingled in with plastic. Also there were dead trees lined up along the river. It looks like they've been piled up there rather than a mass death along the shoreline.
Sad to say, but as lovely as it should be, I'm not planning on coming back 😔
