10 Exceptional

This place is simply splendid, the Corral Beach. The sand is soft and warm, the water crystal clear and the sun is shining bright. It's a perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun, or take a dip in the refreshing ocean. The beach is clean and well-maintained, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy. The view is breathtaking, with the waves crashing against the shore and the seagulls soaring overhead. It's a true paradise that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.

This beach is conveniently situated just off the highway 1, offering ample parking options along the way. Although the breeze was a tad strong during my visit, the overall experience was nothing short of extraordinary.

The beach is a pleasant spot where one can enjoy quality time with loved ones while soaking up the sun along the Pacific Coast Highway. Unlike some of the more well-known beaches, it is not overly crowded, making it a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. Malibu Seafood, located just across the street, offers delicious refreshments to enjoy while taking in the beautiful scenery. Additionally, the beach sits adjacent to a hiking trail, providing the perfect opportunity to combine two enjoyable activities in one trip. Needless to say, I will definitely be returning to this beach in the future.
