Second Way Down

Directly across from the Beachview parking lot there is another entrance to the boardwalk. This previously led to a set of stairs that descended down to the beach, but due to beach erosion, these stairs were closed around 2005, and removed when the boardwalk was reconstructed in 2010. Click here for an interesting history of the second way down, when the beach was connected to the docks, and a look at the public bathhouse.

The stairs can be seen in the middle of this circa-2000 photo.
