Shark Fin Cove is known for it's iconic "Shark Tooth" or "Shark Fin" shaped rock that is slightly off the shore. While the beach is a big hard to get down to (pretty steep climb), it is worth it once you get down there. Some other names this beach goes by is Shark Tooth Beach, Shark Tooth Cove, Shark Fin Beach, and Davenport Cove. This spot is awesome for some amazing aerial photos and videos. If you are an aerial photographer or just a regular land-based photographer, I definitely recommend you to visit this beach. Please note it tends to be cloudy, windy, and cold at this beach (I've been there a few times). I recommend you pack and dress appropriately!
As mentioned earlier, I also took other photos and videos on this trip too. Here are the links to those:

Aerial photo of the cove/beach. On the right in the distance is Bonny Doon Beach in Santa Cruz, CA. Bonny Doon Beach sits on the boundary between Santa Cruz and Davenport. You can only get a shot from this angle from an aircraft. My quadcopter was flying over the ocean for this photo. The straight road you see on the top of the photo is State Route 1. The beach is located right next to it.

Another aerial photo of the beach/cove but shot further out into the ocean. On the right in the distance is Bonny Doon Beach in Santa Cruz, CA. The straight road you see running diagonally through the photo is State Route 1.
