Montara State Beach

Montara State Beach
This is a large beach with stunning views to the north and south. Wildflowers abound starting in late Spring and lovely walking trails wind through through them. At the south end, stairs lead from the parking lot to the beach
Parking
Free. There are two parking lots at the south end of the beach - one at either side of a large vacant restaurant building. Roadside parking on compacted dirt is available towards the north end.
Restrooms
Several portapotties are in the south parking lot. They are usually clean.
Lunch at 12:30
In the south parking lot you will see a closed restaurant building where there is outdoor seating and views of the ocean. Meet there with your painting and lunch box.
