Guide
Good to know
Bring dogs and children
The flat terrain, easy walking paths, and shallow water when accessible make it suitable for dogs, young children.
Come for walking, not swimming
This is primarily a working shellfish-gathering beach with gentle slopes and tidal flats best suited to long walks.
Visit at low tide
At high tide the beach nearly disappears, but at low tide it stretches far out with very shallow.
Litter reported
Visitors mention rubbish on the sand.Mentioned by 4 visitors · 2016–2026
Expect wastewater smell in summer
Hot weather brings a strong, nauseating smell from untreated wastewater flowing into the shore from upstream buildings.
Plan to find debris and seaweed
Tides deposit shells, seaweed, and other estuary debris across the flats, so the beach is not manicured or intensively cleaned.
