Guide
Good to know
Come in morning for clearest water
Reviewers report water clarity improves after morning cleaning and seaweed removal, making it easier to see underwater.
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 4 visitors · 2018–2026
Arrive early on weekdays
Multiple reviewers report the beach is nearly empty on weekdays but gets crowded on weekends, especially in afternoon hours.
Bring your own beach chair
Rental chairs and umbrellas cost $15 to $40 per day, so bringing your own equipment saves significant money.
Parking fills quickly despite $8 fee
Arrive very early as reviewers consistently report parking is limited and difficult to find, especially mid-day.
