Check tide times for tide pools
Low tide reveals tide pools at the southern end with sea stars, anemones, and other marine life.
Visit for peaceful walks
The beach offers a quiet, meditative atmosphere with dramatic coastal views and few crowds compared to nearby Second.
Wear sturdy shoes
The beach is covered with rocks, shells, twigs, and massive driftwood logs that make barefoot walking uncomfortable.
Expect cold water and fog
The water is chilly year-round and fog commonly blankets the beach, especially in daylight hours.
Plan for variable sunset views
Ocean rocks and islands sometimes block direct sunset views from the main beach area.

Questions
Common questions
Where do you park at First Beach?
The nearest mapped parking area is 575 yd from the listed location. Positions come from OpenStreetMap, not from review text.
How far is the walk to the water at First Beach?
90 ft in a straight line from the listing to the mapped shoreline, under a minute. Soft sand and dune make the real walk longer than the straight line.
Does First Beach have restrooms?
No restrooms are mapped within 600 m on OpenStreetMap. That means nobody has mapped any, which is not the same as there being none.
Measured from OpenStreetMap, public aerial imagery and live conditions data, and counted from visitor reviews. Every source, in full.
