That’s not Lover’s beach; that’s the Arch. That beach doesn’t have an established name since the sand rises up for a few months on a 4 year cycle.

Lover’s beach is the next one before the Arch and it has views to the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean.

Cool shot, though.

Correct! Was just about to comment on this. Additionally, the Pacific side of Lovers’ Beach is called Divorcee’s Beach.

Yes! it used to be a nudist beach, since you can’t see it from land, maybe it still is?

It was never a nudist beach, at least not for the last 25 years. I have been going there every year for about the last 25 years.

It was never officially nudist but people did it because it’s hidden from land. I’ve seen it myself.

There are sandfalls that look like waterfalls about 50-60 feet down off an underwater cliff on the bay side of this beach or the one next to it. It makes for a very cool dive spot.

Also a nice shipwreck just past the beach on the pacific side. Lots of stuff just under the arch there.

I caught a mean ass marlin passing by there. 7ft & 160lbs if I’m not mistaken. It took like an hour for me to reel in and I was chafed and swole by the end of it. I’ll never forget. Part of me regrets not getting it mounted but it was plenty tasty.

I would highly recommend this place for anyone fishing or even just for the view. We hadn’t got any other bites all day and were heading back to the docks when we passed this arch again. Just cruising around the coast all day was phenomenal.

Is that stone archway where the picture that's always on the windows login screen was taken?

No I believe that’s Wharariki Beach in New Zealand !

Do not enter the caves that are on that beach. They’re used as toilets by all of the boat mates and the tourist trappers. That was the only negative thing about that excursion. Otherwise stunning to behold
