Perfect for morning beach walks

Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 3 visitors · 2014–2026
Arrive before 10am for parking
Free parking fills quickly during peak hours, though spots open up as the 2-hour limit forces turnover.
Check water conditions in fall
October and November bring higher, rougher waves suitable for older children but potentially unsafe for younger swimmers.
No public bathrooms available
Plan accordingly or ask nearby restaurants like Mulligan's; the beach provides only a foot-rinse faucet at the stairs.
