great campgrounds, perfect for families and nature lovers. We joined a group of friends to spend the weekend at El Capitan and we were happy with the location, cleanliness, water availability and overall site condition.

Had a great time walking the short trail along the beachside. Its a small beach. Parking is $10, restrooms are decent. Shoreline is super pretty but tons of piled up beach wood, which is fine if that's a thing you enjoy. Two small picknick areas with with benches and grills. Lots of rocks, not a lot of rock free sand (which again, totally fine).

Great little state beach. A little surfing action. Lots of migrant birds and wildlife... Little lizards, beautiful flowers and vegetation.. eucalyptus trees! Nice bathrooms, too.

went along with group, was pretty secluded! went for 2 days and it was good. my group had a small part of the beach secluded that was connected to the campsite which made the experience 10 times more better! would go again definitely

Large, very loud groups of people that ignore the camp host. Partying until well after midnight. No Ranger patrols at anytime. When I complain at the front gate office they always say they will look into it but they never do.

Great place! Kids had a blast. The beach is kid friendly as waves were small. The restrooms and showers work fine, but are overdue for upgrade. No black/grey dumps at this campground. The nearby 76 gas station has dump services for $7.50.

Beautiful beach and well maintained amenities like parking lot and restrooms. The main issue though is the amount of oil pollution. We walked on the beach and came back with black, sticky feet. It can be cleaned off with butter and vigorous rubbing, but that’s quite a project.

We camped in the upper section, site # 114. Very nice campground on the bluffs above the beach. Walk and bike paths make it easy to get to each section of the campground. Beach access is by staircases or paths. Rocky beach with drift wood on one end, open sandy beach on the other end of the campground. Enjoy mature sycamore trees on the nature trails. Traffic on the 101 and trains can be heard in northern campsites. Best sites have ocean views.

Only spent a few minutes here to take some pics after a long road trip through California. Looks like a very nice park with outstanding views of the Pacific, though said views may be limited to a small number of sites. There was plenty of parking and overall seemed very safe, with on-site staff. Olympic Otter
