The beach is peaceful and serene, with the added bonus of shaded parking spots under the trees that line the beach. Additionally, there is a tranquil park nearby with picnic tables for a relaxing day out.

This beach is one of the few that's easy to get to in the area. It's a nice beach and the facilities are still in good shape. The sand isn't white, but it's still nice, and the water is a beautiful blue. You can have a picnic here or even camp out for the day. The camping area is clean and nice, but you do have to pay and there's no one to watch over it.
