Sand Beach Ahead

The story

Your warning before the Sand Beach lot, on a road with no way back.

Decide now, because you can't come back around. Sand Beach is about a third of a mile ahead on your left, with restrooms, showers and water. It's one of the first lots to fill, and RVs and trailers can't use it. If it's full, park in the right-hand lane where the signs allow, and walk back. And if you stop, the tour pauses with the car, so tap play when you get back in.
