Gorgeous views and an expansive, clean beach with white sands perfect for flying a kite, taking a stroll - or if you're more athletic and adventurous, surfing. On a cold day, we were content...

This "beach" is an absolute joke.! There is NO PARKING! You have to park on the street and "hike" with all your beach stuff. If you like overcrowded beaches, this is for you.

Clean beach, family friendly. Clean restrooms and pizza and board rentals across the street. If you forgot anything the store will sure to have it!

It's easy to have a lot of fun at this beach! Parking is very limited but it's common for people to park along the street as well (the upside to which is that it's free!). Really it's a great spot...

A wonderful little big beach. Not bright white sand, a darker grey but much less crowded probably because there is no parking, at all. Very cold water. But fun.
See a problem?
