When i first found this beach, i was in love. Fishing pier, you could do some light grilling on beach, the sand was beautiful and the cake topper was that you could see the statue of liberty from the beach! Throw in a parking area and I'm sold!

There is also a mini board walk with just enough rides and games for the tweenies and under. For the older ones, literally across a small street is an outdoor water park.
And hold on parents and single couples, there are a few eateries/bars also on boardwalk for your pleasure.

All in all I loved it. Sadly, just went the weekend of memorial day, and the beach is horrible! So much trash and debris that i had to put my flip flops back on to walk on sand! It's a disgusting shame that people will not clean up behind themselves upon leaving! You are just as responsible for keeping the beach clean as the actual owners.

And speaking of owners, the fees you are charging for parking, what are you doing with it? Because the beach is not clean, the wooden ramp that was built to accomodate wheelchairs, strollers, coolers, etc., ia not being maintained.

I literally fell head first on the ramp because the front of my flip flop got caught on one of many nails, I seen sticking up. I couldnt catch my balance in enough time so all i could do was brace myself for the fall. I wasn't embarrassed, just shocked. I actually laughed after deciding to just lay there for a few seconds. Three young ladies (reminding me of my 19yr old) were coming down the ramp and saw me fall. One had a stroller and retrieved my phone for me. Another one offered to help me up after asking if I were ok.

I would like to thank them again for their assistance and not laughing at me. Well, at least not in my face, LOL. My older kids certainly would have after asking if i were ok...hell, i laughed too. Just a scraped knee, but otherwise God had me!

I hope someone who works this area reads this, or if someone that knows someone, that knows someone...LOL. Please tell them to provide trash cans on or near the beach and warn folks about cleaning up behind themselves. If not, then ban food and grilling altogether.

This beach is used and shared by wildlife as well as humans. Lets work together to keep it safe for all!
