Customary Use
Customary Use

Sanctuary by the Sea looks out over the Gulf from just back of the beach. Along this coast, the wet sand below the mean high-water line is always open to the public. Where a beach has been rebuilt with public money, that open stretch can reach farther up, to a marked Erosion Control Line. The nearest public beach walkover is a short distance away. Reflects the public record as of June 2026.
