Guide
Good to know
Go on weekday mornings for solitude
Visitors report having the beach entirely to themselves during weekday afternoons and mornings.
Park near the main road if concerned
Visitors uncomfortable with the full drive can park where the worst potholes begin and walk one to two miles.
SUV or high-clearance vehicle required
The dirt road has deep potholes and mud puddles that will damage or strand a sedan, especially after rain.
Do not leave items visible in your car
Multiple vehicles have had windows smashed by thieves targeting visible belongings, even empty backpacks.
Bring all supplies and trash bags
There are no restrooms, trash facilities, or commercial services, so pack everything you need and carry out all waste.
