Review:
Bean Hollow State Beach comprises a 1 mile stretch of beach along the San Mateo coastline. There are 2 parking areas from which you can access the beach – Pebble Beach and Bean Hollow Beach. The two beaches are connected by the Arroyo de los Frijoles Trail which covers the 1 mile distance between them. While Pebble Beach is named for its rounded pebbles, Bean Hollow Beach is a small sandy cove surrounded by tidal rock pools. Both the beaches are great for rock pooling and beach combing, but swimming here is a bad idea due to the cold water and the presence of strong rip tides and heavy surf.
