Guide
Good to know
Good for fishing and paddling
Reviewers consistently praise it for trout fishing, shore fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding.
Visit in early morning for swimming
Early morning offers calmer conditions and is recommended for open water distance swimming practice.
Arrive very early in summer
The small parking lot fills quickly on warm days, with space for only 10-15 cars.
Check town website before visiting
The beach closes periodically due to high bacterial levels or harmful algal growth.
Verify residency requirements in advance
Enforcement of resident-only versus guest policies appears inconsistent, with some visitors charged fees and others questioned about access.
