Come for picnics and games, not swimming
The spacious grass field, picnic tables, and nearby sports courts make this ideal for families wanting to play.
Wear water shoes or sneakers
The beach floor transitions from sandy areas to rocks and pebbles, especially closer to the waterline.
Expect shallow water at low tide
Swimming is limited when the tide is out, so plan your visit around high tide if you want to swim.
Arrive early on summer weekends
The small parking lot fills up, particularly around Fourth of July when crowds gather for the fireworks display.
