Walking into the beach area there is limited sand, especially during high-tide; but there's plenty of grass for beach chairs and towels (to enjoy the day). The sand is coarse and rocky with a gradual grade to the water. During low-tide the water area resembles a small stream with sand bars surrounding it.
