SOFT SAND @ CROSSOVERS

The sand is very soft at the exits of the crossovers.  Please make sure your vehicle is in 4WD and your tires are deflated to the proper levels prior to driving on and off the beach to avoid getting stuck.  Also please make sure your vehicle contains a shovel and tow strap.  Please CLICK HERE for the Rules and Regulations regarding this topic.

DOGS ON BEACH

For those permit holders who are planning on bringing their dog to the beach, please remember these important reminders:

·         Dogs are allowed only on the bayside beach (behind the guard shack) at Powder Point Bridge.  They are also allowed on the over sand crossovers.  Owners can also walk their dogs on the access roads and in the parking lots.  DOGS MUST BE LEASHED AT ALL TIMES. 

·         All dogs are prohibited from the any other beach area, and dunes.

POWDER POINT BRIDGE REPAIRS COMPLETE

The Powder Point Bridge is now open. Please obey the speed limit and follow all road signage. Please be aware of the new speed bump on the east side of Powder Point Bridge in front of the Ranger Shack.

 

As always, we appreciate your continued cooperation in adhering to all signage and directives from Beach Rangers and DBR Personnel. If you see anything suspicious, please contact Beach Operations.

Hope to see you at the beach!
