Great spot for a picnic! Several tables and amazing views! This trail to the beach although it is paved is very steep. If you park at the west parking areas 1 or 2, the walk down to the beach isn't as steep. Such a beautiful walk on the trails and beach! It does cost to park but it's well worth it. 5 bucks an hour or 15 bucks for the day. We spent 3+ hours exploring the beach and rocks.

Very clean beach for access points. Good bathrooms. Lifeguards were on duty. Grandkids had a great time

Love the scenic views and trails.

Small parking area with picnic tables and path down to nice beach. Life guard station right at the bottom. Rangers let us in to do a drop off without paying.

There is a great hidden spot that I started visiting after I hit the local mtb trails. Really nice spot to pull out my Cliq Chair and enjoy the view of Crystal Cove beach...///

Very nice clean park. Restaurant right on beach and little local shop like any place else shopping a little pricey. Water was very cold this of year and the shake shack was just up the steps and to the right and not real bad prices. Would definitely go again.

This place is pretty cool and not crowded whatsoever. The only thing is that when they say the trail down the beach is steep... they're not kidding around. Hauling all your stuff down is a piece of cake. Hauling it all back up is an entirely different story. It's a nice beach but dont expect to swim, body board, or boogie board. There's a bunch of rocks that are in your direct path. Overall, great place recommended by a family member.

A really nice area. We were there for a wedding. It was nice and secluded. Bathrooms were open and cleaned for this event.

It was nice! Just have I pay $5 an hour for parking or $15 for all day.

Plenty of space ocean so clear take Da kids there enough bathrooms places 2 eat.

Beautiful spot with magnificent Sunsets

Love this spot. Easy to get to (but be prepared for a bit of an incline) and great waves. Life guards there were also great to have around just in case. Above all, love the staff here - rangers are always helpful and friendly.

Away from the crowds and surrounded by nature. Parking and restrooms nearby.
