Guide
Good to know
Come for solitude and river views
This is a quiet, uncrowded local spot popular with people seeking peaceful walks, fishing, and watching river traffic.
Expect strong river winds most days
The beach's consistent wind makes it ideal for kitesurfing and windsurfing but challenging for other activities.
Plan bathroom breaks before arrival
There are no public restrooms on site, only a poorly maintained porta-john that many visitors avoid.
Check road conditions in advance
The access road through farmland is narrow, rough, and poorly marked with occasional sandy sections.
Watch for barge and vessel traffic
Large ships and barges occasionally dock on or near the beach; fast-moving boats pose a hazard to swimmers.
