Escondido in Spanish means “hidden” and that explains
this beach well. If you blink as you drive by you will miss Escondido
beach. The beach is located off the Pacific Coast Highway. Turn
onto the small side street of Escondido Boulevard and park near
the residential area, along the coast. The beach is right before
the Malibu Cove Colony. The secluded location makes for a nice
and quiet day out in the sun and sand.
Escondido beach is very small but a nice place to relax and avoid
the heavy LA crowds. There is a small but wide stretch of sand
which can be great for sunbathing at high tide. |
Escondido Beach
is shore break, which does not create the best surf conditions
but could be fun with a skim board or swimming.
This would be a great beach to go California kayaking or canoeing.
The beach is located right off the highway, so unloading and loading
your equipment would be easy. There is a small flight of stairs
you have to walk down to get to the beach but the walk is not
too strenuous.
Parking could be an issue at this beach. There is parking along
the PCH, but only a small couple of spaces. The parking is free
but limited and parking along the residential community streets
is reserved for residents.
