Reviewers report having the beach nearly to yourself on weekdays, while weekends draw crowds that can feel loud and busy.
Prepare for steep uphill walk back
The parking lot sits well above the beach with a significant gravelly slope that requires careful footing, especially.
Check closure status before driving
The beach closes seasonally and occasionally for water testing, with no reliable online notice, so verify it's open first.
