Why Choose Cholla Bay?

Cholla Bay is known for its eclectic waterfront homes, strong sense of community, and one of the most fascinating tidal systems in the region. Unlike the resort-style atmosphere of Sandy Beach, Cholla Bay offers a laid-back, authentic Rocky Point experience.

Low Tide Cholla Bay

Unique Highlights:

  • One of the highest tide swings in the world (up to 23 feet)
  • Ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding
  • A quiet, residential atmosphere perfect for relaxing and reconnecting
During low tide, visitors can explore sandbars, search for sand dollars (only take the white, non-living ones), and even walk toward Black Mountain. At high tide, the bay fills dramatically, creating perfect conditions for boating and water activities. It’s a natural show you won’t want to miss.
