I love this beach. When I was young, my dad used to take me out here at least twice a month. Sometimes more. Something about the beach is really soothing. If you go over the rocks, there's a small beach, about 50 yards wide that very few people know about. Go a little further, you'll see rocks carved out of years of crashing waves. Great place to go fishing...go a little further, you'll end at a cliff. I ran into a seal and her cub there last winter...wish I had a camera. If you climb the cliffs there, it'll bring you back to the main trail that follows the coastline. Right where that guy is standing...that's my special place. Ironically, it's called Pt. Dume, which sounds strangely similar to Pt. Doom. Best view of the sunset offered on the pacific coast.
