Very pretty Beach, the bluffs are beautiful! Your Campsite sits on the bluff overlooking the ocean. Sites are clean and well kept, restrooms and showers were some of the best Ive ever seen on a campground. A++ on that! The walk to the beach pretty much sucks to be honest.

As much as I love San Clemente, the pier, the hotel where we stay and the restaurants we've tried, I have to say the beach is not my favorite. But that's only because we find little to no shells when we visit. It's fun to walk along and watch the surfers, though.
