The Most Fun

A day at the beach

What's here, what it costs and how to make the most of it.

The beach

The beach & swim area

A wide sandy beach with a gradual entry, picnic tables beneath covered shelters, a volleyball court, outdoor showers and changing rooms. There is no lifeguard and no designated swim area — swim at your own risk and keep an eye on the kids. Glass containers stay in the car.
