★★★★★Featured review by John Stains

No pictures but this place is a basic playground with access to a mile long sea wall thing that has a walking path, black top. It's great except when hot. I bring my dogs down there. Great beach access. Real bathrooms and portable toilets. Parking is ample. Word of warning, listen to the parking rules. Don't park past the times listed or else you could get locked in. Seriously, they are strict about rules here. Video surveillance is on 24/7. The water park is closed but when it's open, it's packed and fun. Basketball courts, places to picnic, ball field. It's great for younger kids and outdoorsy types.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with young children who want a free waterfront play session combining spray park and beach in one stop. The fenced spray area gives parents of toddlers a contained space to relax.

Nice, clean park. There's a fence around the spray park portion so parents can sit without worrying their small child will run off. Free, which is always guest! A little small but otherwise it was awesome. I'll bring my daughter back again!
