Beach life

Great place to go for a slow beach style. 

Spacing does not feel as tight as it is, the bathrooms  and showers are decent, dumpsters and dump stations are in decent proximity. Spots are back in

There are some really sweet  secluded tent only spots with shade and breeze along the south parameter of the loops.

The Family and I have been camping here for years in a 33ft tow.

We set up a "beach camp" with a canopy and leave it over night and never had an issue. 

I highly recommend this place if you want a relaxing beach style with beautifully clear water and sugar sand. 

There is a convenience store about 10 minutes away by vehicle and super markets about 20-30min depending on traffic.

Tip: Look for, and get your ice from the kiosk machines, after coming off the Beach blvd. bridge (2nd bridge), after you pass the large holding tanks, first building on the right  (sand drive).
