What an amazing place!! You can drive along the beach (only 4x4) enjoy the sun, fishing and a good walk. I love the protected area of ​​the dunes, everything is well signposted, where you can enter with your vehicle and where you can't. Admission is $2 per person, there is a portable toilet right in the parking lot, this one is free. I love this park, we have had a fantastic day.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

You can always go to Kelly Seahorse Ranch and rent a horse for their guided trail ride through the woods over the sand dunes and out along the ocean. It's about an hour on wonderful horses and it's a beautiful, peaceful ride.
