Go off-season or midweek for solitude
Reviewers consistently mention finding the beach nearly empty even on Sundays, making it ideal for those seeking quiet and privacy.
Visit for walking, not swimming
The beach itself is narrow and stony with mediocre water quality, but the 4-mile peninsula walk through natural.
Bring layers for afternoon wind
Wind picks up later in the day and season, so headgear and layered clothing are recommended for comfort.
Visit May through September only
The free water taxi, pavilion with bathrooms and food, and shuttle service operate only between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
