点评:I had high hopes for Woods Cove Beach, but it was a huge disappointment. To get down to the sand, you have to navigate a long, steep set of stairs — a real challenge if you have kids, a lot of beach gear, or mobility issues. Once you finally make it down, there are no bathrooms or facilities, which is incredibly inconvenient if you’re planning to spend more than a short time there. There also were way too many people.
The water itself has a strong rip current, making it unsafe for swimming, especially for families with younger kids. And to top it off, the shallows are covered in sharp submerged hard to see rocks that make it nearly impossible to enjoy playing in the water. I tried to wade in and stubbed my toe on a rock and ended up with a cut :( The waves are also super rough and you will find yourself being pulled out to sea! I saw the lifeguard have to rescue several strong swimmers who were overconfident in their abilities.
With so many beautiful beaches in the area that are more accessible and comfortable, I wouldn’t recommend making the trip to Woods Cove and instead would go to main beach which has restrooms, no stairs and volleyball courts!
翻译:我对伍兹湾海滩寄予厚望,结果却大失所望。要下到沙滩,你必须爬一段又长又陡的楼梯——如果你带着孩子、带着很多沙滩装备,或者行动不便,那可真是个挑战。下到沙滩后,你会发现那里没有卫生间或其他设施,如果你打算在那里待上一段时间,那就太不方便了。而且人也太多了。
海水本身有很强的激流,游泳不太安全,尤其是对于有小孩的家庭来说。更糟糕的是,浅滩上布满了尖锐的暗礁,很难看到,几乎不可能享受到玩水的乐趣。我试着涉水,结果脚趾撞到了石头,结果被划伤了 :( 海浪也超级汹涌,你会发现自己被卷进了海里!我看到救生员不得不救起几个对自己能力过于自信的游泳健将。
这个地区有这么多美丽的海滩,交通更便利,也更舒适,我不建议去伍兹湾,而是建议去主海滩,那里有卫生间,没有楼梯,还有排球场!
