I was looking online for info on this spot and couldn't find much so thought I'd throw some information up here in case anyone is interested.

The beach is accessed through private property, charged at $5 per adult. Kids are free. Summer hours, the gate is locked from 6pm-6am daily. O can't remember what the winter hours were.

The marine charts show some good structure and that it's fairly shallow. In real life, it's extremely shallow at low tide. A lot of flat sand with small rocks protruding along the beach in the water. No obvious sand bars or rips to cast to, so a lot of guesswork on where the rocks stop and sand starts to avoid snags.

I spent a few hours using crab bait and didn't get any takes today. Different bait may have worked better but I didn't have any with me today.
