One of the great things about having a coworker who was a local, was that he knew the “secret beaches”. We would drive to a spot, hike over a sand dune, and have a beautiful beach all to ourselves. Made for some great parties with his circle of friends added in.
The very first time we did this, I watched in amazement as a girl (young woman) backflipped all the way down the 150 foot dune… like the guy did in the above video.
Except slower, gracefully, and kicking up a lot of sand. A shame iPhones didn’t exist back then, it would have gone viral. Athletic and daring… with all that sand flying I wondered how she was able to see, and breathe.
I also now wonder… do these “secret beaches” still exist, or has development over the last several decades crowded them all out?
