-- OUTDOOR LIVING --
- BEACH -
Quiet, safe, uncrowded, warm-water beach on the only stretch of sand where cars are not permitted (Pedestrian Beach).
The beach is on the property itself (no hike over a boardwalk needed). The ocean slope gets about a foot deeper every 10 feet you walk out, so it’s 5 foot deep about 50 feet out, so it’s easy to find a “sweet spot” that is shoulder-depth relatively close to shore. Dolphins regularly swim 50-75 feet offshore (where you swim).
Unless there is a burn ban, bonfires on the beach are allowed in Surfside (on the ocean side of the dune, not on the house side). From the Surfside website: “Campfires are permitted on the beach only if they are under control and no bigger than 3’ x 3’.”
- Deck -
180° views of the ocean, and shouting distance to friends playing in the surf. 4 tall polywood Adirondack chairs with built-in tables. Many lightweight chairs to arrange for your group as needed. Convenient foot wash is located at the top of the stairs to make it easy to come in from the beach feeling clean and sand-free.
