About this place
Added by Josiah Roe
Spend a night just above the coast of Pt. Reyes, and take a very short 200 meter hike down to the beach and tide pools.
This campground is the closest you can get to staying overnight on Pt. Reyes coastline if you're backpacking in. Once you get there, enjoy the view!
The easiest way to get to the camp is from the slightly uphill hike along the Laguna Trail and the Firelane Trail. The trailhead for the Laguna Trail is just past the hostel.
Keep in mind that the Coast Trail does have issues during the rainy months, so keep an eye out for closures if trails become flooded.
