Four parking lots are available, but busy summer weekends fill quickly, so arrive early. Showers are free during the season but may have waits during peak times. Since fireworks and barbecues aren't allowed, have alternative plans ready. Operations end at 5:30 p.m., so plan to wrap up by 5:15 p.m. to allow time for changing.

Best time to visit

After 2 p.m. the sun's intensity eases, offering comfortable swimming time until just before 5 p.m.
