I walked the beach at low tide and seems to be long enough to land but a little tight approach. The sand is firm at low tide. Let me know when you will be going to land on the beach and I may join you.

Great shot of one of my favorite fishing spots. We launch the boat directly in front of the airstrip. I've walked the beach many times and decided a 701 could easily get in there at lowish tide. I plan to do it!

Biggest problem with the airstrip and beach is the wind - can get pretty rough

Hi Bob

Thanks for your comments. The beach is a little too short and bluffs at both ends. The airstrip is not bad, but one way only and uphill, very steep at the far end.

It looks far easier to land on the beach. Wonderful countryside you have to fly around.
