I believe that it's closed to protect shorebird nesting sites.
There's actually a lot of restoration work going on, that includes the trails by the shore and the lighthouse, as well as near the fort
There are endangered turtles nesting in the area
Yes it is
We went down in mid March still very warm. But I dont know why they had closed
They never said...we were there April 6th...not winter.lol lol
Most likely safety or bc it's winter
