Dover Beach

Christ Church·South coast·Calm·Lifeguard station

About

Broad expansive beach with massive carrying capacity. Busiest on the eastern end of the beach with much smaller crowds on the western end. Lack of continuous protective reef allows for tumbling waves, creating a lively but manageable surf zone.
