  • This is our go to place to tour our visitors especially when they are first timers visiting San Diego. We usually take them on a car ride then take them for a longer visit the next day.

  • Wonderful beach! My fiance and I spent the day here and we absolutely fell in love with the atmosphere. What a lovely beach with golden sand, clean water, and quiet surroundings. Highly recommend!
  • Beautiful beach. We live close by and come here often just to walk and enjoy the sun and scenery. Highly Recommended.
  • Super pretty and clean beach! The sand has glittering golden mica in it that makes the waters look magical. The sand was really soft and didnt have those sharp rocks and shells like other beaches. We went at around 11 am and explored the boulders. Super fun!
  • The beautiful white sand was everything i needed from a vacation spot. Great location there’s plenty of street parking if you don’t mind a little walk to the water. It was very cold water but still beautiful. Plenty of room and not crowded at all.
  • Beyond beautiful and peaceful. The beach is very clean and empty. Was nice since us and the kids could enjoy the beach in peace. The water is a little chilly but you get adjusted quickly. Definitely coming back again when in town, best beach we've seen ever. They have a lot of parking spots and the drive along the beach is beautiful.
