Good to know
Reported good with little kids

The sand is compacted rather than soft, making it ideal for comfortable walking compared to other regional beaches.
Visit off-season or weekday mornings
Several reviewers had the beach mostly to themselves during off-season visits and early morning arrivals.
Avoid holiday weekends
Memorial Day, Labor Day, and 4th of July weekends draw massive crowds with five rows of packed chairs.
Watch for summer jellyfish
Jellyfish stings were reported in summer months, with lifeguards nearby to provide vinegar spray after treatment.
Plan for metered parking fees
Parking costs eight dollars per hour and fills quickly on busy days, but can be managed via mobile.
