Visit on weekdays for peace and solitude
Monday through Friday sees far fewer visitors, clearer water, and quieter surroundings than weekends.
Arrive before 10am on weekends
Parking fills quickly and swimming areas open at 10am, so early arrival secures both a spot and prime beach access.
Expect crowds and loud music in summer
Afternoons on hot weekends draw hundreds of visitors playing music at high volume, especially in July and August.
Bring your own food and grills early
Picnic tables and grills are limited and claimed by mid-morning, so bring gear or arrive very early.
