VERY good for a family vacation! There is a lot of little hotels on the beach or VERY close to it! It's also a good honeymoon spot! Don't forget Casa Romentica!👛🎀💋❌⭕❌⭕❌⭕

San Clemente State Beach is a rare jewel in SoCal. It is a true classic. You cant help but feel like you have gone back to a simpler time as you stroll along the great walkway that borders the beach and see the surfers along the pier and the volleyball players making great shots. The pier is one of those... More

Good place to hang out during summer and almost all year around. Good parking space available. People who do not want to walk or cannot walk have the golf cart facility at 2 dollars one way.

I loved the fact that there was parking near the beach and we didn't have to carry our stuff too far. Just a nice family-friendly beach with nice clean sand and lots of dolphins when we were there!

a great, sandy, picturesque SoCal beach. We visited during the week and we had the beach to ourselves. Parking is ample and inexpensive. the beach is very clean and feels very secluded, one of our favorite places.

Safe, clean walkway entrance. How awesome to take morning job seaside! Dodgint the Sprint (train) was fun. In Feb, at 8am, the trail not too crowded. Folks were friendly.
