I agree a steeper approach is better, or a slightly higher approach and landing slightly long - there's plenty of runway.
Much depends upon the wind on the day, and the aircraft.

I found the photo on the internet some years ago and used it in a thread about Catalina in 2004 to show how close the threshold is to the edge of the cliff.
It doesn't entirely capture the reality but was the best I could find at the time.
