Jennings Beach

I found this eminently jog walkable along for beach front with a nice boardwalk. It was more accessible than cloistered St Mary's by the Sea with it's unclear even tense parking situation. Jennings is the place to park with ample space and peace of mind, no friction at all, no sweat (except for the sweat work you do while on the jog walk).

The atmosphere was calm, families were enjoying themselves, and the whole place had a peaceful, welcoming vibe.
