West of the drain the groynes divide the 1.5 m long section of Town beach (71) into 17 beach sections, each about 100 m long and bounded by the groynes. A road runs behind the entire beach providing good access to all the beaches. The Town beaches usually have waves less than 0.5 m which break over a shallow attached bar. Rips only occur when waves exceed 0.5 m, with the rip running out against the groynes. The second beach west of the jetty has a concrete boat ramp for small boats.
