The Bumblebee Beach is a welcome surprise to locals walking down the street, or to the most ardent urban adventurer seeking hidden artworks. Very little is known about the mural, who created it, and why. However, there may not be much more to know other than it brought someone joy to create and joy to those who have ventured out to view Bumblebee Beach. 

Know Before You Go

The mural is on the side of a private residence, so please be respectful. There's a little mailbox to make donations for the upkeep or to leave an appreciative note.
