Guide
Good to know
Excellent for dogs and beachcombing
The beach is dog-friendly with easy access, colorful rocks, driftwood, and good conditions for finding seashells.
Plan for windy, cool weather
Bring a coat even in summer, as conditions are frequently windy and chilly despite occasional sunny days.
Book camping six months ahead
Reviewers report calling daily for cancellations and securing spots far in advance to guarantee a site.
Stay out of the water
State park signs warn of drowning hazards due to rocks, rip tides, and powerful sneaker waves with no lifeguards present.
Bring sturdy footwear
The beach mixes sand with pebbles and rocks, making soft-soled shoes uncomfortable.
