  • ~20 parking spaces — a small lot that fills early
  • Restrooms and showers on-site
  • Bonfires with permit (required — apply through SWFD before your visit)
What’s Actually There

A Covered Pavilion With a Gulf View

This is a small, simple access — no frills, but a genuinely nice covered picnic pavilion with grills and a Gulf view, right where you’d want it. It’s a good pick if you’re looking for a quieter, low-key stop with a place to grill out.

“Small, simple, and easy to overlook — which is exactly why it’s worth knowing about.”
