2-3 hours either side of low tide, you can fall out of the car (free car parking!) and paddle straight across the creek for great sand and safe paddling/swimming. No long walk required!
For older children: the walk out on the sea wall is great, 1 1/2 miles to a fantastic beach and huge dunes. Or at high tide, get the ferry to the Island from the jetty (high season and weekends only) in front of the Chandlery and walk back at low tide. Or vice versa.
