Guide
Good to know
Best for families with young children
Shallow, calm bay water, playground, lifeguards, clean bathrooms, and picnic grills make this ideal for kids.
Go for sunrise or sunset views
Reviewers consistently highlight beautiful views of the bay, anchored sailboats, and moving ferries.
Not a traditional ocean beach
This is a protected harbor beach with calm water, boat traffic, and moored vessels visible throughout the bay.
Arrive early in summer
The parking lot fills by late morning on warm days, especially on weekends.
Visit after 7pm to avoid parking fees
Parking becomes free after evening hours, though bathrooms close around 4:30pm and lifeguards leave.
