Families are still encouraged to go to the beach but to maintain proper social distancing, including six feet of distance from other beach parties and to separate beach blankets by ten feet.
If the separation between groups isn’t possible, people will be asked to wear a mask. Other changes include a 50 percent reduction in capacity in the parking lots that traditionally can fit 800 cars.
The playground at the beach remains closed.
Signs at the park indicate that a tiki bar, full menu, live music, and more, are coming soon. Those features are part of different phases in the state’s reopening phases. Ryan said the signs are optimistic and they hope they will be available this summer.
