$30 for dry parking lot camping is a bit much, but we were here several years ago when the price was cheaper and the clientele matched the price. This visit there were no abandoned RVs or occupied ones that looked like they should be abandoned. We love walking this wide, flat beach but agree with others that it would be very nice if a more substantial walkway were constructed to get across the stream on the way to the beach.

This is one of my favorite beaches . It's 15 minutes from my house. It's got what seems like miles of open beach to walk, run, or horseback ride. From there all the way to Moonstone Beach. It's perfect for my Dogs to go there. People are courtese still and pick up after their dogs. If you're a Tourist and want Sandollars, this is the Place to go. Also for Shells.

One of my favorite beaches. It is huge! I've been coming here since I was a kid. The beach is very flat which makes it good for walking and kids playing in the waves. You'll see dogs and horses here. Camping and day use allowed.

Long stretch of sand before the ocean, but besides that and the wind, nice beach. I once ate an egg sandwich here and it got all over my clothes. My first time there, a boat was parked many feet away from the tideline...very odd.

Lots of sand dollars and other shells. A bit windy but a great beach for a long walk.
