"Generation after generation, our moms, our grandmothers," said beachgoer Manny Vasquez. "Just all the time, this is where we basically come every year."
The beach was very energetic. People were there listening to music and dancing.
"It feels great, taking in the sun rays, enjoying the family, having a good time enjoying the music," said Vasquez.
