This is a great spot to see the sunrise. Make sure to check the weather for the sunrise time and leave half an hour prior. You can stop and grab a coffee at Starbuck's then when you get there, keep driving back and you'll find a swing. It's so peaceful and quiet.

Every sunday night there is a 'come as you are' drum circle. There are all ages and walks of life that attend. Definitely worth checking out. Plus the sunset is always amazing at that time.
