Guide
Good to know
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 18 visitors · 2016–2026
Excellent for surfing and walking
The designated surf zone near the seawall consistently has good waves, and the beach stretches for miles.
Arrive before 9am for parking
The visitor lot fills quickly on summer days, forcing late arrivals to park blocks away on residential streets.
Visit after 5pm to avoid fees
Beach admission and parking are free after 5pm, though you lose lifeguards, bathrooms, and shower access.
Expect crowds on summer weekends
The beach gets severely overcrowded on hot days and holiday weekends, making it difficult to find space.
