User reviews
"If you're in search of a swell spot for the whole fam to frolic in the sand, look no further than this beach. It's a real beaut, and the cleanliness is top-notch. Just a heads up, though - if you're hoping to lounge in style, you'll need to BYO beach chairs. On the plus side, it's a primo place for pint-sized beach bums to play."
