Pay for parking before you leave the car! I forgot and got a fat ticket! Also don't try to walk this beach it's really soft and kinda hard to. Sit and chill , it's beautiful!

It's a wonderful family beach and the waves are gentle for the most part. Great place for bonfires and beginner surfing .

Excellent beach for bonfires , walks, etc... Just bring flip flops because there are a lot of rocks.. Love it here though. ;)

Great beach for surfers , the one which inspired the song "Surfin' USA"

Bring your beach/water shoes . Beach is loaded with rocks that hurt your bare feet.

This is the grossest beach in Orange County . It's filled with homeless drifters. It's next to the LA river drain off. Ew. Go straight to San Clemente or Laguna. All the beaches there are gorgeous.
