Guide

Good to know

Prepare for a nudist section
The beach transitions to clothing-optional territory roughly halfway along, especially toward the lifeguard station at the far end.
Visit in off-season for tranquility
Autumn and winter visitors report the beach is nearly empty and very peaceful compared to summer crowds.
Arrive early, parking fills fast
Summer visitors consistently report parking becomes nearly impossible by mid-morning on warm days.
Expect rocky shallows and deep water
Visitors report underwater rocks and structures that make it rocky to enter the water and deepen quickly beyond wading depth.
Bring your own supplies and bins
Reviewers report very few trash cans and minimal facilities, particularly in the nudist area; bring a bag for litter.
