Advice for first time beach explorers...

Remember where you park! Take a pic of the street name and block number where your car is. People file onto Center Street for some fun and when they try to find their car five hours later, they are wandering the entire island clicking their key fob.

When your feet first hit the sand, TURN AROUND and make note of your beach access. Does it have an access number? Like 4E, 5E, 6W etc. Make note of the houses on either side of the access or some other landmarks.
