The Algerine Coast will not be found on a map. Many locals do not even know
this name for this quiet little cove. Legend suggests that the name comes
from the long-ago wreck of a ship from Algeria. For those who have
discovered this place, it is a lovely spot for a picnic or just for walking
along the shore and exploring the tidal pools.
