Guide
Good to know
Expect shallow, calm water
The beach has minimal waves and stays shallow for a long stretch, making it suitable for young children and paddleboarders.
Arrive early for parking
The lot fills by mid-morning, especially on weekends, forcing visitors to park on residential streets far from the beach.
Water clarity varies near shore
Reviewers report murky water, debris, and trash close to the beach, though it clears further out.
Leave before sunset
One visitor warned that homeless encampments appear after dark, making the beach unsafe for evening stays.
