Another beautiful day at a very nice beach.  This beach is one of the nicest one for snorkeling close to our condo.  I went snorkeling three times, and Enid twice.  There is a long reef that parallels the shore.  In the morning we went swam along the beach for a long ways, and it was quite a bit harder to come back, as there was a current and wind pushing us to the north.

The only problem with this beach is getting into the water.  The sand rises very steeply, and the swell breaks hard on the shore.  It is easy to lose your footing especially when exiting the water, and get thrown by the waves into the sand.  It’s not really dangerous if you are strong enough, but it sure fills up your pants and shirt with sand in a hurry!
