Review:
Asilomar State Beach is a state park that protects a narrow, 1-mile strip of rocky coastline and dune habitat on the Monterey Peninsula. The rocky coves along the shoreline are home to thousands of marine species, and the ocean offshore is protected as the Asilomar State Marine Reserve, which forms part of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. The park is accessible to pedestrians by a one-mile wheelchair-accessible trail that winds through the dunes and includes the Asilomar Conference Grounds, conference center built by the YMCA that dates back to 1913 and is now listed as a National Historic Landmark.
