About Lagoon Creek Beach in Klamath, California
Lagoon Creek Beach is at the south end of False Klamath Cove about five miles north of Klamath. This northwest-facing beach acts like a hook and catches driftwood that is thrown ashore during storms. At low tide you can explore the beach to the south below the point. Near the beach is the Lagoon Creek Picnic Area which is part of Redwood National Park. At the picnic area there is a large lagoon pond, a parking lot, picnic tables, and restrooms.
A hiking trail starts at the picnic area and leads to a viewpoint with a bench looking over the cove and False Klamath Rock. Hiking farther on this trail leads to Hidden Beach.
If you just want to check out Lagoon Creek Beach, there is a parking area along Highway 101 right behind the beach that is closer than the picnic area. Look for the beach and picnic area about one mile north of Trees of Mystery and about six miles from Klamath. Wilson Creek Beach is nearby at the other end of False Klamath Cove.

Reviews
I love this beach. Driftwood, crashing waves and frequent fog. The only knock is the highway, but most beaches on the 101 can hear the cars and trucks passing by. Be sure to hike the trail south of the beach.
