North College Cove
Rating: B
On the warmest summer days, several dozen people go nude or topless at this beautiful cove, which is mainly favored by suited sunbathers and swimmers. The beach is a little larger and has a better trail than its neighbor, College Cove South. Jogging, volleyball, and frisbee are other common pursuits here.
Legal status:
State property.
How to find it:
See directions for College Cove. Take the trail at the northern end of the parking area there and go down its steps to the sand.
The beach:
Bigger than South College Cove. At low tide, you can walk from there along the sand around the big rock between the two coves. At high tide, access is mostly cut off by a rocky promontory.
The crowd:
About 75 percent of the folks who show up on the sand wear swimsuits.
Problems:
Less nude use than at College Cove South; cold water; may be windy or foggy; raids by deputies in the past.
