Description
Crescent Beach is one of the most popular beaches in the area, making it a busy hangout full of locals and visitors. The beach is a mile-long strip of white sand with gentle surf and mild water temperatures--the perfect spot for both swimmers and loungers. Other favorite activities include fishing, picnicking, and wildlife viewing. There is more to the park than beach; forests and dunes abound and house many miles of beautiful hiking trails. There are also two 19th century lighthouses nearby, and it's worth a jaunt up the road to view the antique structures; only one of them is in working order, but they're still beautiful to admire.
