Sandling Beach State Recreation Area

Great beach! Daily fee of $7/car is a very affordable rate. There are children's life jackets available to borrow (please hang back up when finished!). No lifeguard, so watch your children, please. Swimming area is identified by yellow barricade. There are picnic areas plus playgrounds. Bathrooms available, but didn't stay long enough to warrant use. Went midweek before lunchtime and by afternoon it was busier, but still enjoyable. I'd imagine this place is full on the weekend.

Nice place with lake, small beach and lots of picnic area tables.

Perfect place to have a cookout and events. One small issue with the park is that they started turning away some of my Family members after we invited them to our cookout at the recreation area (the area where the cabins and the picnic areas are, NOT the swimming area.). This has completely ruined my father's birthday event, as most of the family were turned away. The staff could have directed them towards the picnic area where we were, so this was unexpected but unacceptable. One of my uncle's even said they had a worker near they entrance waving his arms to signal that they were at "max capacity". The area where we are at in this park only has between 4-6 cars. I was going to give this location a single star, but I shall give them three due to the memories I have of this place

A really cute beach like feel without the long drive to Wilmington! Super clean and fun.
