Is this open to the public just for a day trip or do you have to be staying at the park? I would love a place to take my Grandchildren to pick up shells for the day

Open always just a beach shoreline plenty of parking a few miles of beach shells are plentiful but small from1/4 inch to 3 inches and half shells. Few large 2 inch conch shells takes a lot of walking for best selection.

There's no rules, it's just a beach far far away from civilization. There's no park or anyone really running it
