Very pleasant, big enough for the kids to play and climb over rocks, small enough to experience in 1 hr. Not for the elderly as the climb down is not safe.Full review by Mlashley

beautiful beach, but a challenge to get down to due to some massive rocks at the bottom of the staircase. If you go, wear sturdy shoes and be prepared to either take them off when you get to the beac…Full review by Jennifer T

This area was beautiful. The tide pools were easily seen. There were no starfish, but had many other things to. Look at. There weren’t any shells when I went, but it was late afternoon. Wear shoes…Full review by LAF72

Formally, there is to be no removal of anything from coastal parks or properties, so no shells, rocks, sea animals (starfish, anemones, etc.). With that being said, I think there are probably small caches of memory-shells in nearly all bedrooms across the country of children who have visited San Diego or Coronado beaches. Sometimes it's also very special to take pictures of all the great shells and make collages or photo cards to share with loved ones.... that's also a very nice way of both maintaining memories and sharing them, while honoring the park policies to the letter. Enjoy the beaches!
