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 5 visitors · 2017–2025
Go at low tide
The flats expose solid sand stretching nearly a mile into the bay, revealing tide pools, crabs, and constantly changing landscapes.
Plan for sunset views
This bayside beach offers one of the few eastern US locations where the sun sets directly over the water.
Arrive very early or after 4pm
The parking lot holds only 10-15 spaces and fills quickly on busy days, though parking restrictions lift at 4pm.
Bring water shoes for rocky spots
While mostly sandy, some areas have rocks and rough spots that benefit from foot protection.
Watch for fast-moving incoming tides
The tide comes in quickly on the flats, so check tide times before you go and monitor water.
