A children s menu is available. My daughter liked her chicken tenders and fries. Bring a good book and soak in some rays. Since we were there off season, I can't tell you what the crowds are like in warmer weather. But in season the Beach Club offers live music, dancing, windsurfing, boat cruises, cocktails, and a beautiful view of the sunset.
Admission is free.
