Comments:

Hard to tell swim time because of dead low tide. I ran gingerly so as not to get cut. There were some sharp shells, which I hadn't experienced before at low tide.

otherwise, the swim was excellent with warm water and no waves
What would you do differently?:

nothing. just be sure its not low tide again.
