A hidden gem! Small beach with calm waters and soft sand. We were there on a Monday in September and it was quiet and relaxing. But can see that it would get busy in the summer.

Nice little place to sit and enjoy a book. Safe place for kids to splash in the water but watch for boats. These pictures are from a foggy day in April. Not 5 stars because there is little parking.

Tiny beach in order to get there you must walkdown some stairs. On site a pretty non working windmill for display and scenic view. Their is limited parking and all in all a cozy spot. But I would not bathe on this beach, too many boats abound.

Great happy accident for us to stumble upon this pretty little beach! Great place to enjoy some water at sunset

I didnu2019t swim here as the tiny beach was too crowded at high tide but I did park my bike here to go for a run around the neighborhood. Very fun, family friendly spot with free parking.
