we used to split our trip up between the cliffs and beach , love the slow vibe of the cliffs but usually after 3 days on the clifss we r ready for the beach as mentioned by a couple ppl above. its easier to just stay on the beach and get a ride to the cliffs. If you do want to try the cliffs out a good place to try for a couple days is catch a falling star gardens. inexpensive . great staff and across the street from our favorite bar on the cliffs called LTU.
