About Bluff Cove in Palos Verdes Estates, California
Bluff Cove is a scenic rocky cove in Palos Verdes Estates, California. Like other coves in the area, there isn’t a wide sandy beach here. It’s a great place to walk around if you have the appropriate footwear.
There are parking spaces on the shoulder of Paseo Del Mar between Via Almar and Palos Verdes Drive West. The view is splendid from the bluff at this spot.
Locals surfers call this spot Palos Verdes Cove and ride here often. Brave scuba divers and snorkelers explore this shoreline too.
A hiking trail gradually descends the bluff south and ends at Bluff Cove Beach. Part way down a steep trail branches off and descends to Flat Rock Point. At low tide you can explore the shoreline in both directions to various tide pool spots. If you walk the rocky shoreline south beyond Bluff Cove you will be in Palos Verdes Estate Shoreline Preserve which leads all the way to Palos Verdes Point where an old shipwreck is rusting on the beach. This path from Bluff Cove to the wreck has been nicknamed the Shipwreck Hiking Trail.
