Great place to go play at low tide. Kids go to explore and there is a nice wooden path taking you out to the tide pools stairs.
Lori brown
Nice, quiet place. There are a lot of people, both camping and day use, so if you’re looking for solitude, you might not enjoy as much. Stayed one night at the campground and it was peaceful. No loud parties or rowdy folks
Darcy Saffer
Beautiful park and fantastic campground. Easy access to the bluffs and beaches and the coastal trail. The host seemed very quick to stop anyone making ridiculous noise and trying to party at night, which was awesome and kept everything peaceful. Would definitely camp here again.

Great place to visit tide pools. We camped here and the restrooms and showers were clean and well maintained. Showers are $1 for 5 min- some stalls accept quarters, but some would only take tokens (purchased from camp host) Every one was super friendly.

It is wonderful only if you enjoy quite, no crowds and the beautiful ocean. It’s a lot of wonderful ocean. No slides, swing sets, tours, bike rentals or even a pool, just an empty beach plenty of parking and no entrance fee, so they don’t take debit or credit cards cause the views, parking and close by picnic tables and beach are free.
