Ideal for young children
Water stays shallow for 25+ feet from shore, with no strong waves or rip currents to worry.
Visit at sunset for best views
Reviewers consistently praise the western sunset views over the harbor, sometimes with dolphin sightings.
Arrive early for parking
Multiple visitors report the lot fills by mid-morning, especially on weekends and sunny days.
Water is brackish, not seawater
The harbor mixes fresh river water with salt water, creating darker, murky water unsuitable for swimming.
Bring water shoes for swimming
Spiky crabs live on the bottom and stepping on them causes painful foot injuries.
