I understand that there is a free sign right now but do they charge during the summer, etc. Do they charge to park down there?

Thanks for the info.

They charge $3.00/person/day in the summer. No fee for parking, as of now

Thanks, I was just making sure for the RFAB public hearing tomorrow night when you will have the chance to speak in support of or against the first installment of a million dollar request to improve the pier.

Tom the fee's are a dollar to park and 3 bucks to fish when they start collecting. I wish I could make the meeting. Well I may have been wrong. By the way the water appears to be even shallower now they added sand to the beach.
