Remember the safest place to swim is between the red and yellow flags! Remember to wear lots of sunscreen and reapply every 2 hours, even when it is cloudy! Have a great day ! Please keep children within arms reach when swimming!

Please stay out of the dunes. There are piping plovers with nests in the dune areas and they are protected birds. We would like to keep our wildlife safe. We are very fortunate to be one of few beaches that  the piping plovers call home. 

The dunes themselves are also protected, we need them to keep our beach healthy. Driving over them and digging in them destroys the dunes.
