Guide
Good to know
Visit in off-season for solitude
Fall and winter bring dramatically fewer visitors, making it genuinely peaceful compared to summer crowds.
Expect strong waves in September
Early fall swells can be powerful enough to knock swimmers off their feet, so check conditions before entering.
Pay beach badge before parking
Badge collection is not at the entrance; you must walk or drive five blocks away first.
Arrive early to secure parking
Spots closer to the beach fill by mid-morning on nice days, forcing longer walks from street parking.
