Depends on how much you are willing to walk. I get there by 8am and always find a spot within a block of the beach.
If you have children and lots of stuff to carry...yes!
In my experience you will not need to get there that early, I parked on one of the streets off of Ocean Ave and only had about a 4 to 7 minute walk to the beach
Not realy......there's enough free parking if you are willing to walk a few blocks
