Photograph of a birdseye view of a stretch of highway near a beach, [s.d.]. The road can be seen running from the foreground at right to the background at left and is lined with automobiles. A wide, sandy beach borders the road at right, while mountains can be seen at left and serve as the point from which the picture was taken. Two long wooden piers jut out into the ocean in the background at right. Many people can be seen on the beach, many under the shade of umbrellas.
