Nice beach. Its got two large lots. In season, I would get in before 10 as it will get crowded. Beachbis clean, there is a life guard and facilities. Even a cart with iced coffee depending on the time of season. Also has a wooden ramp to the beach.

Not too busy and clean. This is our favorite beach near here.

We were at Fenwick Island State Park Beach in early November and it was perfection! I can't speak to what it's like in the high tourist season, but off season there was hardly anyone on the beach, the parking lots were wide open, and the beach was spotlessly clean (no trash, no dog poop, nothing). This also meant the restrooms were closed and there wasn't a trash can in sight, so we had to take our dog poop bags with us when we drove home.
