Public parking in the area can be a bit tough to find. There are "private" lots that have a higher price, but a somewhat worth it to be at such a close proximity. The boardwalk itself has plenty to see/do/eat. A lot of the vendors only take cash (which seems to just fly out of ones wallet in this area). Of course there are ATMs on site to help replenish if needed. It definitely was not a bad experience, but overall ended up pretty costly. The $9/person rate to get on the beach at this location is more expensive than some of the neighboring beaches, although kids were free (11 & under, I believe).
