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 14 visitors · 2017–2026
Wear water shoes without fail
The bottom is rocky with gravel and sharp debris rather than sand, starting from the shore into the water.
Come on a weekday to avoid crowds
Weekdays are lightly used, while weekends draw crowds and noise; summer Saturdays fill the parking lot by late morning.
Bring insect repellent for biting flies
Biting flies are relentless and swarm visitors immediately after leaving the water.
