About The Dunes

[Zeo DiPaulo]

Not as generally heavily populated as the main part of the beach, the Dunes do have their own attraction. They provide relative privacy for those seeking it and a pleasant place for those looking to camp overnight to do so - though a paid pass is required and can be purchased at the entrance to the beach itself. Also here in the dunes, any nature lovers might be interested to see that, though they are inaccessible and viewable only at a distance , several different types of shore birds choose to make their nests among these dunes - the Great Blue and Little Blue Heron among them. In fact, the Heron are the most prolific and are what gave the beach it's name.
