I had read that this was the best beach to go to on Kent Island and ended up very disappointed. There were tons of bees on the sand, there were jellyfish in the water and the water was dirty (trash, food, etc). People were getting Rita's (from a truck parked in the parking lot) and coming down to enjoy the sunset, but it was not great for us. The only part my kids did enjoy was running up and down the grass hill between the house and the beach.

Went there on 8/2/20 and there were TONS OF JELLYFISH! you couldn't even safely get in the water. There was also a security guy blocking the closest parking lot...but why? There was plenty of open spaces up there. Definitely probably won't be going back. Water was monkey and smelled like the bay...not the ocean.

Found this gem through TripAdvisor. A lovely place to swim in the Bay. Restrooms and clubhouse were closed but there were Dixies at the parking lot. Nice shower and fresh water fountain next to the beach. Picknick tables available but the two on the far left side (that provided shadow) were unusable due to foul smell from the bushes. Water was clean, shallow and warm and no current thanks to the small harbor dam. Great afternoon!

Enjoyed a lovely beach day here, which offered a great view of the bridge! There's a nice boat house which offers a rest room and a cafe.

Venues, Events by Karon, were held at this clubhouse many times. Tents, and catering were provided and the beach area is open to the public (or used to be) before it got abused.

This is a fine public swimming beach - with a section reserved for dogs and their owners! There is also an outdoor amphitheater, family picnic area and trails through the surrounding woods. Terrific view of the Bay Bridge. There is a fresh water fountain and wash area just off the beach and public restrooms are nearby as well. The historic clubhouse building is a popular wedding and event venue.

It is a great dog beach. In the morning, it is not crowded. There is no hose to rinse off the dog. However, Nauti Paws is not far away, it has a do-it-yourself dog wash that is convenient and clean.

The beach was nice & quiet also not crowded on Saturday 8/25/18. The beach was clean & so was the bathroom. Decent parking. Enjoyed ourselves & will be going back again.

This small beach is a hidden gem! It’s a beautiful spot for sun bathing and swimming. There is a separate dog beach near it too. There is a building with bathrooms and a snack bar.

The dog beach is next to the public beach. Everyone was uber respectful and this is a stellar beach for all ages. Come early as parking is limited.
