Guide
Good to know
Come for sunset views
The afternoon and evening light over the water offers remarkable views from this east-facing location.
Expect a quiet, local crowd
This small beach draws mostly resident visitors rather than tourists, keeping it calm and peaceful.
Park several blocks away
The beach access road has no parking lot, so plan to walk your gear from the nearest street parking.
Visit at low tide
At high tide the beach narrows to just the width of the road, making it uncomfortably cramped.
Bring all supplies with you
There are no restrooms or lifeguard services, and it operates on a carry-in, carry-out basis.
