Guide
Good to know
Explore for sea glass and shells
The rocky beach offers colorful rocks, abundant shells, sea glass, and tide pools with visible wildlife like seals.
Go for scenery over swimming
Clear views, sunsets, and the peaceful setting make this better for relaxing and watching the ocean.
Solve parking before you go
Street parking requires a resident permit with no public lots nearby, and non-residents risk $100+ tickets from enforcement patrols.
Visit on cooler days or mornings
Water quality degrades during warm afternoons with reports of seaweed, debris, and small creatures becoming more numerous.
