Beautiful sandy beach that's close to parking. Very clean and lots of open space. You do have to pay to get in. I think it was $15 per car. They have fire pits you can use as well. Bathrooms are somewhat close. Waves look a bit rough for small kids but the sand area is vast and they loved making sand castles.

It's about $25 a car but if you walk in or bike in it free. There is music at most the shops on the weekends and plenty of bathrooms. It's also a great beach to have a fire just get there early so you can get a fire pit.

Such a great beach! You can see so many cargo ships on the water. The restrooms were really clean. My kids had a blast

Loved it. Got there early to get a pit. Fell asleep in the sun, 😂 yes, I got sunburned. Got my 12000 steps in! :-) Little rough walking on a recovering fractured ankle. Water was really cold, but it was fun!
