It’s not the ocean but pretty solid beach not far from DC. Way better than sandy point! No jellyfish (net keeps them out I think). It was $24 for two of us in one car. Good for families. There’s a playground and good bathrooms and showers. I’d come back with kids.
Great way to experience the beach with kids. There's a swimming area with a net around it to keep jellyfish out, but it also works well to keep kids in and contained. The sand is a little rocky in places, which makes it a little more uncomfortable to walk on, but it's great for hunting for rocks and shells. It's not the ocean, so the waves are non existent, which again, can be both good and bad. There are picnic tables, bathrooms, and a playground. They don't rent equipment, but you can bring umbrellas and chairs. It's crowded and pricey on the weekends ($20+/person), so Tuesday is the best day to go, as it's $10 per car. It's worth visiting if you have kids and you go on a cheaper day.
I went to the Campground and it was really nice. You have space in the camping sites. You get both electricity and Water. And the swimming area isn’t that far from there. You get a lot of space for yourself, and there’s actually a fishing place. The only downside are the bathrooms. They are cleaned in the morning but they are a little old and rusty.
Nice beach that wasn't too crowded. There's a nice fenced area for safer swimming. There are some shaded areas. But be warned!! The sand can get hot. Like, lava hot. We walked down to the water kind of early in the day. When leaving the water, it was a game of 'the floor is lava' except I didn't have water shoes and there was no way to get away from the searing heat except bury your feet in the sand every few steps. That way, you could get your feet nicely cooked. Nobody wants a hard, fried foot that's raw in the middle! I'm sure some/part/most of that was in my head as it was my first beach excursion of the week/season/year/okay, many years. Go enjoy the beach. Quit reading some rando's review.
It was a clean beach, but it does get busy during summer. There are grills you can use, as well as some tables. There are bathrooms available on site, which is nice. You can not bring glass containers and no alcohol or other substances, so it's pretty family friendly. Supposedly you can find shark teeth on the beach, but we didn't see any.
