We went early not a lot of people it was nice
The View is Beautiful the water is Great and love what they have done to the beach. AWESOME
It’s really nice and you could even go surfing, provided there aren’t very many people. But there are just too many people, especially during peak summer days. The entire beachfront becomes a free for all, so you need to get there early if you want parking spot AND a nice spot on the beach.
Atlantic seawater is a little cold, but not enough to ruin beach experience.
Had a great experience, be aware that the water is freezing even in July. Other than that had a great day, the beach was full, but it was expected to be since we are in summer — not a lot of dinner options. Be careful on what area you choose to sit in; there is a part of the beach designated just for surfers. If you don't have a surfer table, you won't be allowed in the water. Guards and police won't let you in the water after 6, so I would recommend going early so you can enjoy it fully.
I love this place. It's so relaxing and clean. It is a non smoking beach, so please respect that when you go. They do so much to keep it clean for us. The Ripper is the best place to eat fresh and delicious fast food. Great drinks and amazing icecream.
