Fontainebleau State Park - beach question.

We are looking for new things to do with our kids ( age 10 and 7) that could be an easy day trip from B.R.
I was curious how the beach at Fontainebleau State Park is? Worth the hour trip east on I 12?
Any OT'ers ever been?

I've been to that park a bunch of times but never went to a beach

keep your kids away from the beach. nothing good ever comes from there.

It's a very nice park and would be an enjoyable trip, IMO.
If you get tired of the park and beach, you can go to the lakefront in Old Mandeville and hang out, people watch, etc.

Probably okay for kids that age. It's a lake beach so don't expect much. Sand is decent, water generally pretty muddy. Very shallow. The beach itself isn't worth the trip but the hiking, long boardwalk pier into the lake and other things together would make it worth it.

The St. Tammany bike trail is the best thing going there. The park is ok, the pier is okay. The beach is a 2 on a 10 scale.

You'd be better off driving another 30 minutes to Ocean Springs, MS.
Also check out Tickfaw State Park. They have a water playground and hiking trails that are kid friendly

The beach itself ain't Florida, but the whole park experience is good.

I got swimmers ear last time I swam there, in 1968...
