This paid parking lot can get crowded in evenings and on weekends, so arrive early to make sure you find a spot in time. Parking costs around $6 depending on how long you want to stay at the beach. This beach is an incredible setting to explore before or after your picnic.

After paying for parking and displaying the pass on your vehicle dash board, proceed to the trail that begins to the LEFT of the parking machine.

This is a dirt trail on uneven terrain and stairs, wear the proper footware to make your way down this 5-to-7 minute mini-hike.

Proper footware is highly recommended to make it down to this rugged beach - it’s worth the effort!

At the bottom of the trail, when you arrive on the beach, turn RIGHT and walk North along the coast of the beach. Your picnic will be located within 3 to 5 minute walk from the stairs. We strive to find a spot that is quieter with an incredible view, to create the best picnic experience possible for you. Your host will be waiting to greet you, and we will be available to contact at anytime if you have any questions.
