Description

The beach features plenty of open space for kids to run around, alongside free public parking lots. Visitors can wash off the saltwater and change into clean clothes after swimming. However, getting onto the beach itself presents a challenge: a high sand mound at the entrance makes pulling beach carts difficult and poses a slipping hazard, creating a tricky descent for older visitors, those carrying heavy gear, or people with disabilities.
