“Just south of Tourmaline Surf Park, residential streets provide access to the less populated end of the beach where Loring Street becomes Ocean Boulevard. Parking is very limited, but it may provide a lucky spot when all other areas seem full. There are no facilities at this location, but the bathrooms at Tourmaline are a short walk (or flight) away…” Sandbag C. Gull
