One of the best local beaches to visit. This is where most of the islands local beach bums will hang. *Dog owners beware most locals have their dogs off leash here.*

You can either park or drive even further down South towards Big Shell and Little Shell (you'll need a 4 wheel drive!). They have camping areas for tent camping along with RV set ups, boat launch and an area for water sports (and rentals available at Bird Island).

Great fishing and hangout that may not always be crowded. Once inside park, I usually take the left fork in the road to that side of the beach and head towards the jetty!
