X2 on topock!! They try to charge you just for parking on the beach at pirates. There food is expensive and not good at all.

They charge you for parking your boat on the beach? I was just there 2 weeks ago and they didn't charge us nor have we ever been charged when we beach the boat there.

Across the canal from the bar on that long beach in the past the park rangers cruise through and collect for parking there. It's happened to me a bunch of times. Not sure if they do it on the bar side.

Oh I see...I think I've only parked on the other side once a few years ago.

We've been going up there for years before the pirate bar was there. Always parked on that beach. I'd say about 50% of the time we got hit up for day use payment.

Why not park on the "free" side?

If I remember correctly that wasn't always a sandy beach over by the bar. I think they cleaned that up when the bar got built. It used to be so different up there. You could go up on a Saturday in the summer and there'd be maybe 20 boats in that cove.
