The photo is slightly deceiving, because you can't actually see the ocean from the campground because of some small sand dunes. It's easy to get to the beach on the paths, though, and you can hear it. We've stayed in nicer campgrounds, but being on the beach is really nice. The staff were friendly, bathrooms are decently clean, just aging and needing a little work. All in all, we plan to return. There's a nice dog beach just north, within walking distance. No fire pits at full hookup sites.

So close to the beach. Camp neighbors were polite and neighborly, they had saved some of my food from squirrels and seagulls, so its best to leave it in the car or store in a critter proof container. Has running water and restrooms which is always a plus when camping. Attendant was nice and informative. Had a great time here will continue to visit 😊.

We have a little mom&pop camper van and don't require hookups so we always try to get a spot that backs up to the ocean. We can usually find one or 2 nights but if you're hoping for a full hookup spot, you'll need to try 6 months in advance. We've been coming for years and lately it seems nearly impossible to get a week regardless of the time of year. BUT... if you're lucky enough to get a spot you'll love the campground. There is also a city trolly transit stop just up on the road that'll take you into town for a fun day of shopping. Not sure how late they run but I know we've used it at dinner time as well.

This was so much fun camping at the beach!! They have picnic benches and a fire pit, we had s'mores and hot dogs!!! The employees are very friendly and are always there when you need a hand or have a question. Will definitely go again!! 😁

I love staying here for the full RV Hookups. MOST CA State Campgrounds do not have full hookups. Dry camping is closer to the beach. Negatives: Dogs not allowed due to bird nests. There is a dog beach nearby. No shower facilities. Squirrels and seagulls are bold and excessive! Do not feed them!
