As the closest beach to the house, Jackknife beach is the best for families looking for an easy activity. Bring beach chairs, coolers, fishing nets and water shoes because there are so many activities available. During the summer you can catch crabs, spot horseshoe crabs, go clamming and of course, build sand castles. Parking is free but can fill up in high summer. Unfortunately no facilities but since it's only one minute from the house it's easy to go back and forth if needed.
