Best place everrr! If you’re scared to go paragliding it’s really nothing, super gentle and tame. Chris was the coolest dude and overall this place was a blast. 10/10 would recommend
Bring your money and GoPro and hitch a hang glider ride. Or just relax and enjoy the view !
Unexpected nude beach at the bottom of a pretty enjoyable hike . Basically like the locker room of an LA Fitness at 3pm on a Tuesday, just old dudes letting their dongs flap around in the wind.
The paraglide ride is expensive but worth every penny. Exhilarating and amazing.
It's off the grid! Also, it's cool to see people gliding from the beach below.
Love the view from here... Most serene place in San Diego.
The views are BEYOND beautiful, just go!
Great paragliding , go for the tandem!
Beautiful ocean view , great hike , surprising amount of naked men roaming the beach
Optional nude beach . Best waves around though. Kinda creepy sometimes so make sure to give people a fake name and tell them to go away.
A great place to catch lunch during the week. Great views of the coastline and people jumping off of cliffs. Great homemade sandwiches are served out of the shack.
Great view of the ocean, and its nice to watch the paraglider 's.
I had an exhilarating time; I wish I could go back tomorrow.
wonderful spot for a quick lunch with a view !
Awesome ocean views
Go flying. Seriously spring for the paragliding . It's the coolest experience ever.
The view of the ocean from here is amazing.

Nice and beautiful...
Best local place to become a finalist for this Year's Darwin Award! PEOPLE!! STAY AWAY FROM THE CLIFFS!!
Just pick up a picnic lunch and watch them glide.
Paraglading here is awesome! Beautiful views
Kinna bummed that the gliderport was already in the db. It's just surreal. Highest cliffs, hang gliders , nudists below. Worth picking up a hot dog from the breathtaking snackshop
Live music on Saturdays from 1:00 to 4:00!
Great to sit and watch them all literally float on air! Read more
Not sure if I have the cojones to do this yet. Maybe next time. Read more

Small but beautiful beach. The trail is kind of tiring (specially, going back after the beach day). One of the few nudist beaches in the area. - José Ayala
We finally tried for the first time to swim and snorkel next to sea lions. Although we didn't see anything but it was amazing. Do it guys break your fear - Maha
Beautiful beach, & park. Very crowded making it a great place for people watching. A number of places within walking distance for food, beer, and cocktails. - Brad Hager
