Little Treasure Cove
Little Treasure Cove is the northernmost part of Crystal Cove State Park and offers a great whale watching spot. Below the observation platform are great tide pools to explore at low tides. Access to Little Treasure Cove is easiest via a long paved path from the northern day-use parking area at the Pelican Point entrance.
Pelican Point
Pelican Point Beach is a broad stretch of beach between Pelican Point and Crystal Cove’s Historic District at Los Trancos Beach. The beach slopes gradually so it’s a narrow beach at high tide and a wide beach with rocks in the surf at low tide. There are tide pools at the north end near Pelican Point where scuba divers enter in search of even more marine life. At the Pelican Point lookout, there are several very scenic pathways along the cliff top that also lead to the beach.
Shake Shack
Overlooking the Pacific Ocean and several miles of open space between Corona del Mar and Laguna Beach, you’ll come across a little food stand once known as the Date Shack. The 40’s style diner serves breakfast, American comfort fare, salads and shakes.
The Beachcomber Cafe
The Beachcomber at Crystal Cove provides oceanfront dining in the Historic District of the Crystal Cove State Park with breathtaking views of the Newport Coastline and Catalina Island. Situated steps from the sandy beach, The Beachcomber's outdoor patio provides the perfect spot to enjoy the ocean's breeze while sipping on your favorite cocktail or enjoying one of the many favorite entrees and appetizers.
Treasure Cove
Treasure Cove Beach is conveniently accessed from hiking trails that lead down the bluff. In the wall facing Treasure Cove is a cave that is accessible at lower tides and many tide pools in to enjoy.
