I think certain beaches have long shallows that are more apt to be used like a sandbar would.

I remember Leavitt going out a long way before it became neck deep even when I was a child. I seem to remember a cove or something off to the right beyond the actual beach if you are orientated toward the lake that boaters used to use as a means to protect their crafts from the waves generated by the Mount when it would pass by.
I used to love how the shallow ledge would increase the wave height and allow for a little body surfing.
