Crystal Beach: A serene escape with unparalleled charm, offering a captivating blend of natural beauty and convenient amenities. The crystal clear water are a sight to behold, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the refreshing and rejuvenating experience. The sand dunes that line the beach add to the allure of this costal haven, creating a picturesque and serene atmosphere. The entry fee of $10 per adult is an incredibly affordable and accessible option, making Crystal beach a budget friendly destination for families and individuals alike. While there are few considerations to keep in mind, such as the requirement for beach umbrellas only and the need to arrive early to secure a 15$ parking spot. Crystal beach is a must visit destination that will leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Worst beach experience of my life. The park and playground are fine. There's clean bathrooms. Nice water views from the park. The beach is about the size of a small yard and is the sand is just broken shells. The water is rough and the ground is all rocks. Three of us were in the water for about 5 minutes and all got cuts on our hands and feet. I do not recommend this "beach" at all and certainly not without water shoes. Its so bad, my small child didn't want to even stay and play in the "sand".
