Guide
Good to know
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 11 visitors · 2013–2026
Best for walking and meditation
The paved boardwalk and trail system make this ideal for running, biking, and strolling rather than swimming.
Bring kids for playground access
The park includes a playground, picnic tables, and grassy areas, plus a Vietnam memorial and war victims memorial nearby.
Visit on weekdays for quiet
Festivals and events near the boardwalk create noise that carries across the beach, making weekdays substantially more peaceful.
Parking costs $5 per hour
Non-residents must pay at meters, though some reviewers note rates vary and street parking may be available nearby.
Plan for rough shore conditions
Expect abundant shells, rocks, and seaweed; avoid barefoot walking and don't expect a sandy swimming beach.
