Bolsa Chica State Beach

Located across from the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve, Bolsa Chica State Beach has a different kind of California vibe, an eco-friendly aura.

Known for its softer surf, it’s perfect for swimming, soaking up the beach scene and for beginning surfers, as surfing is allowed here year-round. An on-site RV campground affords the opportunity for Bolsa Chica Beach camping any time of the year with fire rings, basketball courts and picnic areas dotting the area.

But the uniqueness of Bolsa Chica Beach lies in its natural experiences. Visitors to Bolsa Chica Beach can enjoy traditional fun beach activities and wildlife. Take pleasure in bird-watching, surf fishing lessons and, if the opportunity presents itself, see the rare grunion fish come out of the water to spawn on the sand.
