We visit this beach every time we go to southern California. There are tons of tide pools that are all teaming with life. The beach is surrounded by multi-million dollar homes, which are fun to look at in and of themselves. Theres an arch in the water just south of the beach which makes for a great backdrop for family pictures. The best part is that its easy to find (just off PCH), and its free to park (residential area). There are also restroom facilities and an outdoor shower area to remove sand from legs and feet.
Small beach with great tide pools. Bathroom was very clean. Easy walk down to the beach parking could be a little hard to find.
Great miniature beach thats kind of tucked away at the end of its neighborhood. Even if you cant manage nearby parking and its crowded, its still a great place to stop. Long and steep pathway down, so its good for a lil cardio sesh😉 Like all beaches local to this area, the rocks are an absolute blast and make it worthwhile alone!
Amazing beach for a semi-private getaway! Beautiful views, great breeze, awesome coves! Definitely a photographers paradise! Fun for kids! And you can bring your dog! Yes, parking can be tricky! But overall, perfect beach trip!
This is a wonderful, wonderful place to bring kids and explore. The tide pools are amazing, fun rocks to climb on, and nice beach with a mild tide to go swimming in.
A very scenic beach with lots of rocks and crashing waves. Access is fairly easy down a paved walkway and there was a public restroom along the way that was open! The beach area itself is small and crowded on a Saturday. The beach at Montage Resort is a better choice if you want to see waves crashing on rocks and also have some space to spread out and walk or jog along the shoreline.
This small beach and tide pool area is a very special location. The walk to and from the beach is paved and has railings so hand on, the second part is rather steep so please be cautious.
I am a photographer who loves to view the sunrise at the beach. I go to the beach at least once a week to discover unique spots on the Pacific Coast Highway and this is definitely one of them.It’s a nice cozy little beach for climbing a few rocks and chilling with a little more privacy. I don’t know how busy it is during the summer, but I know it’s not aswell known as larger beaches (Newport, Huntington, Laguna, corona Del Mar).I love it and I think you would too!
It’s always relaxing no matter what time of week or time of day that we show up here. Typically in the afternoon you’ll see a lot of photographers shooting couples or what not, but it still a great place for small crowds and family.
Beautiful beach with amazing views. Just to see the landscape is worth the stop. A must if you are in the area.
Great small beach with tide pools. We parked on the street and walked down short steep paved path to the sand. Public restroom with 2 outdoor showers. Lifeguard station on the beach. Tide pools were fun to explore with the kids. Beautiful homes in this area. We were here on a weekday during the spring. This beach probably not the best choice during busy summer days and weekends. It’s small and not much parking in the neighborhood.
Excellent Rocky beach. Nice view. You can find sea animals like crab, sea anemone etc
Beautiful beach that wasn’t crowded. We had a great time looking around and watching the sunset. Will be back!
This is one of the most beautiful beaches that you can find in Southern California. There are crabs all over the beach and the shoals are just breathtaking. Take a trip around sundown and the sunsets here are simply never disappointing. Be careful you dont fall into the little river though!
Such a great beach to relax in and take photos.
Our first time visiting, gorgeous day at the beach👍
My favorite beach in Newport! Beautiful houses all around and if you go at low tide there are tide pools.
Amazingly beautiful place for family and photography. The sunset view is absolutely stunning.
Used to come here as a kid. Came back with my childhood friend and we were as giddy as we were when we were kids. Tide pools are still awesome. The beach is still awesome
Super fun day! Even in the cold waters, I had lots of fun swimming! The waves are pretty nice. You can jump into them and itll send you under water. Pretty nice, fluffy sand, and never too crowded!
Absolutely stunning here. Very private beach not known to many people. Never crowded here even in the peak of summer! There are natural tidepools here that come and go with the rise and fall of the tide of course. Just be careful not to take or disturb any of the wildlife in the tidepools. Protect their environment and keep this place nice, that way we can always come back and enjoy this beautiful spot underneath the mammoth seaside cliffs.. oh yea did I mention the sea caves, only accessible during the day at low tide but so majestic and awesome, really completes the whole experience. Feeling one with nature amd taking in all the natural beauty. Unlike all the major touristy beaches nearby, this place is never crowded even when the nearest beach (Corona Del Mar) is jam packed visible off in the distance. You loom at that beach and then this one youre at and you feel grateful for the privacy, even though youre just a stones throw away from the big beach.. the tidepools and caves conveniently form a natural land barrier, blocking all foot traffic coming from the main beach, eliminating easy access over to this beach.. is a gift in itself. ♡
Lovely little beach. Like looking around the tide pools
Its never too busy here. Lots of variety for different types of coastal play.
Interesting place that has many sea creatures to look at in natural habitat. Rocky surfaces when tides are low, yet very calm and not crowded at all.
The most amazing sun set was viewed at this beach. The coastal view was just incredible. I love this beach.
Absolutely beautiful beach to explore and relax. Peaceful spot.
My reviews not paid, endorse or sponsored. Today was a good day visit little Corona Del Mar. The beach wasnt packed at all. Im assuming people were still afraid of covid-19 because usually this Beach is packed. Our children had enough room to fly their kites. The beach, parking lot and restrooms was was tidy. The gripe that I have was little Corona Del Mar is no fire pit ring or charcoal BBQ are allowed on the beach which is too bad because 3 stars beaches allow fire pit ring or charcoal barbecue on the beach.Yes I will recommend little Corona del Mar to friends and family but take note what is mentioned above no fire pit ring or charcoal BBQ allowed on the beach.
This beach was gorgeous! This is definitely a wonderful place to spend a vacation day. The beach was super clean and not crowded. We had a blast swimming here. There were also great tidal pools that we got to show to the smaller kids. They were very happy about the little animals living there. If your looking for a quite beach to relax on this is a great place!
We took family photos here and it was so perfect.This beach is quiet and has mini tide pools for kids.
I go here because my wife likes it. There beach is not large and not a lot of places to sit. The walk in and out is one steep road. Every time we go, there is a lot of seaweed. Parking is hard to find, but most California beaches have minimal parking. The tide pools are neat. If you are looking for a quick beach to visit, drive down the road to Newport, Huntington, or Laguna.
My favorite beach. Love it.
The tide pools were amazing
I found out about this tiny gem while Google searching for tide pools near Disneyland. After reading the reviews, I was 100% sold and couldnt wait to visit. This beach did not disappoint! We easily found street parking in the most beautiful neighborhood, and the walk down to the beach was pleasant and filled with so many great photo ops. Halfway down there is a clean bathroom facility with outside showers to wash off the salt and sand. The most magnificent feature was the incredible tide pools filled with sea life. The kids and adults both loved exploring and seeing all the tiny creatures waiting for the tide to return. Be prepared for COLD water, though. Overall, it was so much fun to spend a couple hours here. We hope to come back in the spring during our next Disneyland trip! Oh, by the way, its a 5 minute drive to Newport Beach!
Really neat small beach. Tide pools are great for kids to view ocean wildlife in their natural habitat. The hill is intense but well worth it for those of all ages!
It is a cute beach, a nice little spot to enjoy the sea breeze, magnificent views, and high waves. They have restroom facilities, as well as showers and changing rooms, that are all very clean. Once in the beach, the sand is clean, without much leaves or sticks. Its a ideal spot for sunbathing. No lifeguard on duty most of the time, so swim under your own risk. Still, not ideal for swimming, mostly for sightseeing. It has easy access both for cars and people walking by.
I wish we could have stayed there the whole day. My kids really enjoyed. I will be going back to visit hopefully sooner than later.
Probably my favorite dive in Southern California. Sometimes the harbor seals come and join you at night which is always fun, although they do ruin your hunting.
Beautiful little beach in a sheltered cove. Great for families. Easier to keep an eye on your children. Lifeguards on duty in summer season. The Toilets are close by. If you are bringing a lot of stuff its a good idea to have a wagon with wheels you can pull it on. The pathway to the beach is a long winding slope.
Beyond beautiful and so many interesting tide pools and rock formations. This is a rockier beach and fairly small. The most important thing to know if going with kids is that the bathroom and showers are halfway between the beach and street level. It’s not too tough of a climb, but with gear and tired kids, you may want to plan for that.
Great kid friendly beach with a tide pool
This beach is perfect for kids. Parking is a free for all in the near by neighborhood. Short and pleasant walk down the paved path to the beach. Their is a fresh water stream draining into ocean. My kids played here for hours. Do not collect any shells from this beach, it is being preserved.
I’ve been going to this beach for over 10 years now and it will be my beach till I die. Clean, convenient, and not as crowded as other beaches in the area.
Very small beach and lots of rocks so not the easiest to walk on, wear wet shoes. Bonus is, they have bathrooms just up the ramp. Beach gets crowded so get there early so you find a good spot.
Out of all the beaches in OC county, I love this beach the most. Its secluded, not overcrowded, has three areas with tide pools - each slightly different, has beautiful rock formations, is an easy walk from the road, and the restrooms are located close by. Its not a surfing beach, since there are too many underwater rocks, but these rocks break the waves and make the beach more swimmable.
A nice secluded beach with fine surf for swimming and snorkeling; no surfers here. Lots of kelp and seaweed, but not hard to find a clear area. A wide paved footpath leads down to the beach from a residential street. Lifeguard tower is manned all summer, and a shady table with a State Park Ranger is set up on weekends to explain the nearby tidal pools to the kids (plan to visit at low tide for best experience). There is a restroom building at this beach. Get there before 9am or after 4pm to find easy parking or be prepared to hunt for a spot on the residential streets or at the nearby State Beach lots; streets are free but the lots are pricey.
A little beach off to the side of CDM. Great spot to hang on the sand and take in the sights but not necessarily to enjoy the water....lots of rocks. The views from above are really amazing. There are some cool rock formations below that make for some good pictures.
This is such a beautiful beach above water and below! I free dive her a lot and have never had a bad experience! The beach is beautiful and has fun for everyone (except maybe surfers... But oh well!Arch rock is a sight to see (and swim through)!The only problem is limited street parking...
Its supposedly a private beach but you can get to it with a little walking from you know the normal parking / public beach. I have to say the views tidepools and rocks are quite fun to look at. Plus the beach is kept really clean.
Beautiful area with a nice beach and public restrooms/outdoor shower just up the hill. You can enjoy the small beach and travel to the nearby tide pools.
This was a cool beach. Little tide pools and seaweed ponds to check out. There is a sandy area with a small stream right as you get down the path to this beach. We were checking this out in a tide pool that was pretty deep. An octopus popped out and ate this shell that was crawling along. Ot was an impressive sight.
A great place to unwind!
I wish you could star-rate various aspects of a venue, instead of a single rating.Id love to give this place a 5 star rating because it is truly an awesome place to visit. The beach is nice and friendly to family. The downside is the steep hill to get to the beach. It can be a challenge if your family members have trouble with that kind of thing.Other than that, its a great beach to go to and spend the day with the family. Nearby youll find the tide pools and a lot of nooks and crannies to explore with the kids.
Great place to take photos. Not too crowded and you can find parking spots on the street you just have to look for people that are leaving. A definite go to place for photographers.
My favorite beach ever. What else can I say?
Going before sun light at low tide adventuring the fresh tide pools. Besides the crabs fish and urchins u might get lucky to see a baby shark, an eel, or an octopus. I usually am alone with no one around for a couple hours. Then its here and there u might see 3-4 people by 10am. Must see and absorb.
Great beach for locals with tide pools. Waves are pretty mellow so great for kids too. Parking can be challenging sometimes especially during the summer months
This is a magical place for all ages. Just remember to be clean as good people live here. And when you go down to the tidepools, be sure not to remove any rockds or creatures. Clean up after yourself to keep this place pristine for generations to come.
Amazing views. Great location...well worth a visit.
Beautiful, quiet unbelievably amazing!
Nice view goog for walking
Beautiful beach to explore.
Put a small amount of Ashes of my fiances in his favorite place in the whole wide world. Where we all grew up and played long ago. Beautiful spot very very steep paved Road to walk down and walk back up do not suggest for anyone in bad health
I walk on the bluff once a week. Good for a two mile walk. View is amazing. On a clear day you can see Catalina island to the west and the Newport and balboa piers to the north.
Cool spot for family time! Just watch out for the rocks in the water and lots of seaweed. Kid friendly beach.
Tide pools, clean water, beautiful scenery, one of the best beaches in the area!
I grew up in Corona del Mar little Corona was the place that we hung out. My fiance passed away and we held his celebration of life wish I cant find the picture of unfortunately, but it is a beautiful spot it is really easy to go downhill to get to it but going back up is another matter if youre in a wheelchair I guess its accessible of somebody really strong is pushing you up but its worth it you can stand at the top and look down and its just stunning its very beautiful
Traversed down Poppy Street and felt warm from kind greetings, illuminating architecture and a most healthy population. We found the asphalt path to Little Corona---this is where I spotted the first Dolabella auricularia (aka Sea Hare) when scuba diving.Arch Rock is a noticeable landmark. The dive/snorkel is straight out and left. A diverse microcosm of marine life exists amidst the rocks. Water is pristine and clarity was such that little fish (wrasses) were seen swimming in the shallows from the sand. Dive location.Tidepools at Little Corona are brimming with life. Visiting in the morning/afternoon was a strife engaging all senses---from the chilly Pacific, to the crashing waves, and gentle California winds with bright photogenic surroundings. Visit!
Its a little bit of a hike to get down to but worth it. Great location for tide pools at low tide. Nice sunsets too, popular location for photos.
A great place to see tide pools. Its a public beach with no entrance fee. It can be hard to find parking in the surrounding neighborhood.
Great small beach. Not crowded at all. Great for kids. Parking on side streets above, then walk dowhill to the beach. Public restrooms.
One of the best beaches for families. The kids will love the tide pools. And photographers will too.
The best hidden beach in Orange County. Not really hidden but not crowded. Great rock features; park on the street and walk down.
This little beach is a great spot to catch a morning breeze or sunset. I like going here for its marine life in the tide pools.
Love this beach not too crowded but parking can be tricky!Beautiful homes also, for me only in a dream!🌌
This is the best beach in Corona Del Mar. I have been coming to the tidepools since I was a little kid. One of my favorite places in the whole world.
Beautiful place.some time bussy.some time not...amazing views.. this place is peaceful and beautiful...
My favorite beach. Not to many people. Sand, waves, rocks, tide pools, birds. Has a touch of the wild and you can actually hear it too.
A small hidden treasures. Tide pools are great for kids. Parking free but have look for one when busy.
Great little beach. The only thing I didnt like was all the seaweed tangling itself around my feet. Since the surf was rough, there was alot of seaweed being washed ashore.
Beautiful small beach at the base of a steep hill. Tide pools in and around the rocks. Parking is not straight forward.
One of the most beautiful beaches Ive ever seenWaves crashing against the cliff, fog, cold breeze...
Great place to explore tide pools at low tide. Free parking and puplic restroom.
The beach is always the best. To get away but if you can handle crowds inside this place is no secret
Fun tide pools. The sand is a little more coarse than nearby beaches, and some rocks in the water, but its a hidden gem.
We will be back one of our favorite spots!!!!!
Awesome for kids. They loved the tidal pools.
Beautiful beach. Very clean, peaceful and quiet. Took my engagement photos here!
Great weather. Clean beach.
The stones in the water break waves, creating beautiful dynamic view. The rocks on the shore have great patterns.
Great spot to check out the tide pools during low tide. Clear water.
Awesome family beach and sea glass😀
Beautiful and breathtaking. Unfortunately finding parking here is horrible. I was able to see the tadpoles and crabs. I recommend this place.
Easily the most beautiful Beach Ive visited even though parking is a beast .
Ok. Corned beef and cabbage. Heck, throw the corned beef in a crock pot with pickling and cabbage - easy peasy. Nope. How do you get corned beef wrong? I jave given this place many chances. No more
Beautiful, love the ocean, very nice sand
Easy access to beach, with bathrooms and shower. Steep hill for the elderly. Lots of tide pools!
Awesome beach for the tide pools. Easy walk from the street, and a public bathroom!
Most people never heard of it or no where it is, but if you like a little bit of privacy with beautiful cliffs this is the place to find
Family friendly beach, lots of tidepools for exploring, beautiful views, restrooms and drinking fountain.
Easily accessible nice little beach with gorgeous views
This place is Awesome!
Great beach frequented by locals. Sheltered from wind, easy access to surf and tidepools.
Beautiful views. Warm sunshine against a cool ocean breeze. Masterful homes overlooking the mesmerizing ocean..
I love this place fun and peaceful at the same time dont feed the sea gulls because they will eat anything you have.😁
This little beach is truly a hidden jem so beautiful to see the tide pools are amazing
Good place to go with the fam and have a good time
Working out here is such a great time. The hills and steps are perfect to round out your workout
Go when the tide is low to see the tide pools. Caution: my hubby got a surprise on his foot, stung by a string ray, while playing in the water.
A little sand, a lot of rocky outcropping, a beautiful display of the variety of Southern California coastal experiences.
Great place! Bring shoes to rock climb. Always go during low tide.
Very scenic. During this pandemic, try to avoid there as it is so busy!
NICE HIDDEN BEACH WITH A BATHROOM WHICH IS A BIG PLUS! NICE CLEAN WATER AND TIDE POOLS.
This beach has beautify scenery and is easy to access.
Great beach for tidepooling, swimming, and all sorts of chillaxing

2022-03-29The best beach in California! I had gone here in 2020 and had dreams of it ever sense and just as beautiful as I remember! This gorgeous little beach has so many amazing memories and we will be building so many more. Lots of shops and food in the area. Would definitely recommend this beach! Definitely the best California has to offer!

2019-05-31Love this place. Found this place out bu googling it and reading other peoples review. Its easy to access the houses are gorgeous. The scenery is breath taking. The pebbles the shells the wildlife just fantastic. Its not as dirty as the other beaches but youll find a few broken glass here and there but the beauty of it just amazing. Perfect place to get away from everyone nice and quiet. And they have fun facts who doesnt like fun facts to read def recommend

2020-09-09Absolutely BEAUTIFUL beach! Watched the sunset from the top of the hill and was amazed. Stunning rocks, landscape, and sand. Seriously the most gorgeous beach I would highly recommend visiting here. Not your typical beach. More for just short time visiting, taking pictures, and exploring the little beach.

2019-10-09We went on a late May morning, so parking wasnt a problem nor were crowds (there were four others besides us). The walkway is steep, but has handrails and generous stairs/ramp so even I could access it. The rocky beach is just beautiful - with the tide out, Id hoped to see some tidal pool sealife, but there were none. But the beauty, the water, and peace was well worth our short trek.
Review №9
2021-05-24An amazing treasure of the California coast. I was there on a weekday so I was almost alone to see the sunset reflected in an enormous tide pool. This day was really a magical mystical experience for me. Definitely go and enjoy. I made this photograph that day. The access is by a long rather steep ramp, some effort going down and lots more going up but worth it.Visitors really respect the rules of visiting these tide pools, keeping this a beautiful experience.

2018-10-11A must see quiet, rocky hidden beach with no crowd and breathtaking views.Check out the tide chart and try to visit during low tide so you can explore the many tide pools and creatures in them. There are rocks to climb and caves to see as well. Beautiful colorful rocks and huge shells are strewn about the beach.**Remember to not remove any rocks, shells, or animals from the beach. And always remember to pick up after yourself!
