Lovely space for my family to enjoy the beach! Comfy beds, large kitchen, plenty of room for relaxing inside and out. Close to downtown for dining, too!

Be sure to get a parking pass (annual pass for $12) or risk a $500 fine! Port-a-potties are placed regularly down the length of the beach, and there are freshwater showers for rinsing and changing areas near the access road entrances.

Eat at Black Marlin's Bar & Grille, the food is great, the staff is super attentive and friendly, and the chef/owner even created a sauce just for us as I am pregnant and alot of flavors give me heartburn. The nachos are the best tho!
