Good to know

Plan for cold water year-round
Visitors consistently report freezing Atlantic temperatures even in August, making long immersion uncomfortable without a wetsuit.
Visit at low tide for exploring
At low tide the beach expands dramatically and natural rock pools form, revealing the full scale of the sand flats.
Walk the dunes and forest paths
A wooden boardwalk connects multiple beach access points.
Expect strong Atlantic waves
Multiple visitors describe powerful waves and red flag warnings, even in summer, making this primarily a surfing beach.
Arrive early in summer
The large parking area fills by late morning on hot weekends.
