Good to know

Best for young children and dogs

Verify residency parking rules first
One reviewer states you must be a resident to visit, while others mention a $30 daily fee.
Go for scenery, not swimming quality
Water clarity is often murky with seaweed and pebbles, but views of boats, the lighthouse, and harbor are consistently praised.
Visit off-season for true peace
Multiple reviewers emphasize the tranquility on weekdays and outside summer, suggesting weekends and peak season get noticeably busier.
