Guide
Good to know
Come for relaxation and dining, not swimming
The calm bay waters, nearby restaurants, free parking, and walking paths make this ideal for families seeking.
Visit on weekdays or early morning
Weekday visits offer a peaceful experience, while weekend and summer afternoons bring heavy crowds and long restaurant lines.
Check water quality before swimming
The beach occasionally closes due to pollution, and seaweed and sand fleas are common enough to deter some swimmers.
Wear shoes in the shallow water
The shallow bay bottom has worms, and broken glass appears regularly on the sand despite cleanup efforts.
