This beach can get quite crowded with snooty people and families on the weekends, but it's still a great spot to take a dip in the ocean or have a picnic. I love the view of the coastline from here, all the way up to Santa Barbara.

This beach is definitely worth seeking out, whether you plan to spend the day there or just take a morning stroll. It's mostly secluded, a local favorite, and the dogs are very friendly. Plus, the views are simply stunning.
