Lovely beach for families, $35 parking in cash no reservation needed. The waves can be strong so be aware. It gets crowded but you can always find a spot to set up your beach towel.
I visited this beautiful beach one cloudy Monday morning. I was in search of waves to surf. I was not completely let down. The beach itself is really nice. The sand is soft, there are not many rocks. The beach is very long, but as far as I could tell there was only parking on the far side near the motel. The water was refreshing and not too cold. It was about 67 degrees in early August. There were lifeguards stationed along the beach. A good beach for kids I'd say because it has a lot of room. Nice place, I hope to return as soon as the swell picks up because I feel like only got a small taste of what this beach has to offer for surf. I saw a point break near some rocks and there is a lot of beach break as well.
would have given 5 stars but there's very limited hot water for showers:(
This beach was very clean and was not as busy as the other beaches. I only ended up here because we found parking for $15 near by. There are not any waves at this beach so if that’s something you’re looking for it may not be the best option. It would be great for those with kids as the water is very shallow.
Absolutely love this beach. Restrooms are where you park your car. 20.00 all day parking.If you have a lot of stuff in a wagon, there are no ramps, so you either have to pull it through the sand, or carry down stairs. This is on the side next to private beach and parking. Not sure what the have down the other end. Restrooms close at 7 pm. There is also an out door shower where the kids can wash off all sand before getting into the car. Picnic tables are there also. Do not recommend eating on the beach. The seagulls will come looking for food.
THE BEST BEACH!!! Soft sand, no rocks or seaweed. SO CLEAN!!! Its huge, so you aren't sitting on top of each other. Nice big waves for body surfing, paddle boarding, boogie boarding and fun. Great place for kids. No public restrooms on the beach, but there is a parking area on the left hand side that has restrooms and and outdoor showers. You will not regret visiting. Memories are made at this beach for sure!!
Loved this place we stayed in Long Beach Suites. One of the Top vacation destinations I have been to.
