This is a fantastic spot to check out, perfect for a quick visit. The harbor could really make some profit by implementing $10/10 minute dog wash stations. There's plenty of water and sand for my furry friend to enjoy, and all the other dogs we encountered were friendly, along with their owners.

Do you adore dogs, basking in the sun, and the sound of crashing waves? If so, you'll love this beach! It's an off-leash dog beach, making it a favorite of mine. Watching all the dogs romp and play together while their owners join in on the fun is a joy to behold. Plus, the golden sand adds to the beauty of the beach.

Our dog had an absolute blast playing with other pups at this beach! The weather was pleasantly cool, a refreshing change from the Central Valley. And let's not forget to mention the beautiful golden sand. I almost don't want to share this hidden gem, but I highly recommend keeping this spot quiet and peaceful.
