Guide
Good to know
Expect a gentle entry
The sand slopes gradually into the water without rough dropoffs, making it easy to wade.
Go in winter months
Winter offers fewer crowds and is considered one of the best seasons to enjoy the beach by locals.
Visit at low tide
High tide eliminates usable beach space, leaving no sand to sit on for hours past the posted tide time.
Arrive early for parking
Paid hourly parking ($3–$6.50 per hour) fills quickly, and the lot enforces strictly with frequent citations.
Bring water and supplies
No public restrooms or showers are available near the beach access point.
