"Swing over the ocean"

The location of this playground is outstanding. There is one bench swing and one baby swing near the beach. The play structure has tunnels and slides. Most kids just like to balance on the small fence surrounding the play equipment. Use caution here because it's busy and you can't always see your kids. Read more on FunOrangeCountyParks.com.

"Beautiful"

This beach has it all: clean sand, crystal clear water, playground, basketball courts, public bathroom, boardwalk, tide pools, and restaurants.  We love coming here and finding a spot along the sand and watching for dolphins surfing in the waves and pelicans diving for their meal.  

The tide pools are on the north side of the beach and are a bit of a walk from the playground, but there is a boardwalk that you can walk on for most of the way.  The bathrooms are next to the playground and on the north side of the beach near the tide pools.

Parking can be tricky at this beach.  There are meters on many of the local streets, or in small parking areas near the stores on Laguna Canyon Road.
We prefer to park in the parking garage on Glenneyre St. just south of Laguna Ave.  It is about a 10 minute walk from there to the beach.
It is one of the most beautiful and famous beaches in the U.S. and we love it!
