Overview
Shoreline RV Park offers a scenic and convenient base for travelers exploring the rugged Northern California coast. This park is known for its unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean and its proximity to the Crescent City harbor. It provides a straightforward, comfortable camping experience that prioritizes easy access to the region’s natural wonders. Guests often appreciate the well-maintained environment and the calming sound of the waves crashing against the nearby shoreline.
Location & Surroundings
Situated directly on the Crescent City waterfront, the park is just steps away from the B Street Pier and the vast expanse of Beachfront Park. The surrounding area features a mix of maritime activity and coastal serenity. Visitors can enjoy a short walk to the harbor to watch fishing boats or explore the rocky shoreline at low tide. The location acts as a primary gateway to the Pacific Coast Highway, making it an ideal stop for those traveling between California and Oregon.

The park is designed to accommodate various rig sizes with level, gravel sites and full hookups including 30 and 50-amp service. Essential facilities include clean restrooms, hot showers, and on-site laundry to ensure a comfortable stay for both short-term and long-term travelers. Guests can stay connected with complimentary Wi-Fi and cable TV, while the pet-friendly policy ensures that four-legged companions can enjoy the coastal air. The layout emphasizes ease of movement for larger motorhomes and trailers.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Nature enthusiasts will find themselves perfectly positioned to visit Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, home to some of the world’s tallest and oldest trees. Locally, the historic Battery Point Lighthouse is a must-visit during low tide when the land bridge is accessible for walking. For family-friendly fun, Ocean World provides an up-close look at marine life, while the nearby beaches offer endless opportunities for beachcombing, birdwatching, and sunset photography along the jagged cliffs.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is ideal for coastal road trippers who want a reliable and scenic place to rest without sacrificing modern conveniences. It is a fantastic choice for photographers and nature lovers who wish to wake up to stunning ocean vistas every morning. Because of its convenient urban-adjacent location, it also suits travelers who prefer being within walking distance of local dining and city parks while still having the Redwoods just a short drive away.

Theift is a huge concern. No night lighting and no cameras. Our generator and 30 gallon propane tank(full of propane) simply disappeared. Police located tracks on beach where it was drug away. Last night another camper had two $7,000 motorcycles taken. Police take reports but mention the homeless that have a nearby camp make it an unsafe area. Will never stay in this town again. Have traveled across the states never any issues, except when we crossed the border into California. Asked why no safety procautions or heads up to campers. We were told it's a city owned business and " they don't want to spend any money"

I'd stay here again with a few caveats. 1. There is a clear problem of bicycle theft at night here. Thieves steal bicycles that are not locked to the campers with strong chains. 2. There is a decent bathroom, shower, and laundry room. -BUT- there is also a public single stall bathroom just outside the gates of the RV park. Many guests, including us, first thought that this terrible bathroom was THE bathroom for the RV park. It is not the bathroom. When you register, check your email and they will send the code to the bathroom lock. 3. We never met anyone managing this place. The registration office seems to have odd hours so we registered online and all was fine. 4. It is a beautiful location on a flat plain with an earthen berm between the campsites and the beach. The berm blocks much of the wind coming off the bay. This is a good thing. 5. We ate our meals at the picnic table and the hook up worked fine. 6. We met very nice people here and felt safe. 7. It was a pleasant 20-minute walk to the restaurant at the brewery. We felt safe along the way.

We arrived just after 4 PM. got all set up and went out for dinner. we came back to the park and went to bed. The next morning we were going to see the Red Woods. I noticed my Westinghouse Generator was missing along with 30 pound propane Tank and the regulator to hook the dual fuel generator to the propane tank. What was amazing was the generator was carried to the beach then drug along on its wheels southeast on the beach to the parking lot next to the boat piers in the cove. we will never stay here again. To make this park safe and secure would have to have motion activated cameras along the beach as well as the entry. the cameras would also need lights that came on with motion. Of course there would be animals setting them off but it would stop criminal from coming to steal things.There have been numerous thefts in this RV Park. My recommendation is class action law suit for not making this a secure and safe location. I am in if someone does it.

Solid county RV park with fabulous outlook over the bay of Crescent City. Definitely recommend a site with an ocean view - there is a little berm to sit on and watch the sunsets, and you can have your dogs off leash on the beach. Yes, there is a persistent fog horn in the distance and very noisy neighbors of the sea lion variety! But in my opinion it adds to the character of this place! We did not have any trouble while we were there and everyone at the park was real friendly. Definitely recommend to stay here when in Crescent City!

The reviews online made us a little leery about possible homeless people, etc. What we found was a well organized Campground with tons of very expensive motor coaches and other well maintained rigs. Never did we feel unsafe and nothing went missing in the night. It was awesome to walk on the beach in the afternoon and morning. Loved the availability of renting a Solo stove to enjoy a fire when it got a little chilly in the evening. Very friendly staff too. About the only negative in my eyes was the bathrooms. They were a little sad and worn out.
