Buckroe Beach, which borders Chesapeake Bay, is a great place to bring your family for the day. Lifeguards are on duty so you can enjoy a swim. The beach is wide and there is lots of space for playing beach games, building sandcastles, or just relaxing. Enjoy a picnic at one of the picnic tables or picnic shelters (picnic shelters can be used for a fee). If you come here during the summer, you can also enjoy concerts and movies.
Pets are only permitted during the off season (from September through May).
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
