It's a beautiful beach to start, that never really gets overcrowded. The best, however, is it's dog friendly (off-leash too) after 7pm between Memorial and Labor Day - providing an exceptional spot to take your pup for a refreshing splash and fun on the beach. It's extra fun when you go close to 7pm alongside all the other dog/dog-owners for what becomes a fun-filled dog-beach party!

Get there early for parking and be careful not to park on the streets where its marked off, they are strict about it here! But this is a great big wide open beach, you can also take surf lessons or rent a board from the shop across the street!
