Bay Beaches

If the surf is rough or you have little ones, the bay offers a nice alternative to the ocean beaches. Many bay beaches have lifeguards and playgrounds so mom and dad can relax. You will need beach badges to use these beaches so be sure to check the municipality where the beach is located to obtain the proper beach badge.
