Launching considerations / restrictions:

Beach might be a bit rocky at low tide. The sign might say that the park is closed after dark, but there are no fences or anything.

Parking situation:

There seems to be adequate parking in the lot. If not, there is another lot on the shore side of Ocean Boulevard, next to a playground.

Comments:

This beach is used for fishing by locals, and a few people splashing around. There are signs saying no swimming. It would be a really nice place just to hang out except for the cars zooming down Ocean Boulevard!
