CaliforniaBeaches.com was created to showcase California’s 1,264 mile coastline. The editors and owners of this site personally visit the beaches to keep the information current. There are nearly 1000 beaches already profiled on CaliforniaBeaches.com and every now and then we find another one hidden along the coast. Our goal is to cover them all, including the hidden gems, not just the most popular beaches. If you find a beach access that we don’t have covered, please let us know.

To find beaches, you can use our interactive map or browse by county on our Beaches Page. At any time you can use the search located at the top of our website.

Our goal is to keep you connected to your favorite beach destinations and to inspire you to visit places you never knew existed. If you want to be inspired and informed about beaches in California, then join 200,000 others who follow us on Facebook.

After visiting beaches we would love to hear what you think by sharing comments on the bottom of the beach pages. Each beach review gives you a chance to get a California Beaches T-shirt!

Enjoy California’s fabulous beaches!

PS – Sometimes words and pictures aren’t enough, so we created this video to show why we love California beaches.
