It's surprising to see how some individuals are unaware of the natural oil seepage that occurs in the Pacific ocean near the beach. It's possible that they may have a particular political affiliation or preference for electric vehicles.

This charming park boasts a stunning view of the beach and even features a convenient doggy bath for furry companions. During our visit on a Wednesday afternoon, we noticed a fair amount of pups, mostly on their leashes as per the rules. However, there were a handful of playful pooches chasing after balls on the sand. We give this park a solid four-star rating, only deducting one star due to a faint oil scent in the air.

Amazing location to watch the sunset! The beach is equipped with numerous benches and picnic tables that offer breathtaking views. On a clear day, you can even spot all the Channel Islands. Additionally, the beach has convenient amenities such as BBQ grills, restrooms, and a self-serve dog wash station. It's a pet-friendly spot too, with dogs running around freely and a designated pet station for poop bags. The best part? It's easily accessible, just off the freeway.

Discovering Cove Beach on a road trip was an absolute delight. The beach boasts stunning views and is dotted with charming driftwood forts, providing a unique and natural setting for relaxation. On the fourth Sunday of every month, visitors can explore the vibrant flea market, and there are plenty of shops and eateries to enjoy. Additionally, the small park offers convenient amenities such as free parking, restrooms, and easy access to the beach. All in all, Cove Beach is a truly lovely destination.

The beach is certainly aesthetically pleasing with its vast expanse of sand and crystal-clear waters. The restrooms are well-maintained and family-friendly, providing a level of cleanliness that is hard to come by in public spaces. However, the dog wash station is a bit of a letdown, as it comes with a steep price tag of ten dollars. Nonetheless, it is preferable to having a sandy and wet pup in your car. The beach does offer some accessibility features, including wheelchair access and ample parking. There are also various amenities available, such as playgrounds, picnic areas, and barbecues. The camp caretaker seems to be doing an adequate job, but there is certainly room for improvement. Overall, while the beach may have its charms, it falls short in some areas and leaves something to be desired.
