This location is fantastic! It offers a stunning view of the Monterey and Pacific Grove coast. The golden fine sand is a real highlight. Keep in mind that overnight parking is not allowed, but some visitors have found spots to park on the left side of the residence. Additionally, there are public porta potties available at the end of the road.

The beach we went to on Christmas eve was quite dirty and infested with flies. While it was less crowded than other nearby beaches, I wouldn't suggest it as a first-time visitor. On the plus side, there was ample parking and plenty of restaurants within easy reach.
