“A big, soft, sandy beach filled with sunbathers, volleyball nets, large play area for the kids, fire pits & picnic tables. During the summer, the beach & park come alive with concerts. Me, I’m into Jazz & Salsa…” Sandbag C. Gull
Moonlight State Beach has good handicapped access with a loading zone, and sidewalks that stretch out into the sand.
