"We <3 spooner's cove"
My kids really enjoy spending the afternoon here playing int he tidepools and searching for treasure. There are great hiking opportunity and The trillium and Bishops pine are really neat if you catch the timing good. Los OSos is blessed to have such beautiful play space!

"LOVE this beach!"
For those of you that love hiking this is a wonderful spot! There are many beautiful trails along the water that are just breathtaking and there are even quite a few that are stroller-friendly, which I love!
The beach is also a great way to end a fun hike - take a picnic and let the kiddos run around & play in the water! Such a beautiful place!!
