Geographical Features
It featured a network of rather spacious sea caves that were regularly used by smugglers and other lawbreakers.

History
In the late 14 century DR, the beach and surrounding coastland was ravaged by pirate raids led by Traven Blackdagger.

Some time round the, the beach was again overrun with the activity of ne'er-do-wells associated with the Blackdaggers. The culprits then were the Blackdagger bandits led by the vicious Jareth Grim, who led the groups raids on behalf of the undead Traven Blackdagger, who had been risen as a skeletal pirate captain by the Red Wizard Kallos Tam.

Also around that time, Marion Hexbane set up operations within the sea caves set into beach's cliff face.

The bandits' activities were thwarted by the combined efforts of the Harpers Seven Toes, Garl Gnarlclaw, and Xalliana, and their ally, the Hero of Sleeping Dragon Bridge.
