From the reviews

Nice park with a playground. Sat across the street on a small beach to watch the sunset.

★★★★★ — Bj, Aug 2021

Beautiful and fun place to take the family, launch a kayak, or sit with your significant other and watch the sunset. Kind of a rocky beach, though, so not the greatest place to swim, unless you have water sox or sandals that stay on your feet.

Great beach, views and plenty of room. Kept really clean both on beach and camping area.

Getting married at BP Heron Center

BP Heron Center is a public beach or park, so a ceremony here almost always needs a permit from the managing city, county, or state parks office — and the rules matter: many public beaches cap your guest count, set ceremony windows, and restrict what you can set up (some ban chairs, arches, and amplified sound entirely). There's no on-site coordinator, catering, or weather backup, so you'll bring your own vendors and a rain plan. The payoff is a stunning setting at a fraction of a private venue's cost. Start with our public-beach permit guide, then call the local office to confirm this season's rules.
