FAQs

Can I bring a chair?
Yes please! Guests may bring low-profile beach chairs for comfort. To keep sightlines clear, chairs must sit no higher than 9 inches off the ground, with a backrest no taller than 32 inches. Standard camping or lawn chairs aren’t permitted.

Can I bring a blanket or towel?
Yes — but only normal beach towel–sized blankets no wider than 36 inches are allowed. Oversized picnic blankets or mats won’t be permitted, as they take up too much space on the grassy deck. Think of a beach towel that comfortably fits one or two people.

Small bags only, clutches (4.5" x 6.5") and backpacks (12" x 6" x 12")
