GETTING HERE
On-site parking is prioritized for Alexandra Inn hotel guests. We may ask non-hotel guests to park off-site at 2155 US 31 North (a 2-minute walk down the beach/sidewalk).
We do have ample on-site bike parking available and are conveniently located across the road from the T.A.R.T. Trail and within walking distance from a multitude of lodging options and local neighborhoods.
East Bay boaters are welcome to anchor out and walk in! We do not have a dock on-site and ask that you do not beach your watercraft vehicle.
