Review & FAQ:
Point Dume State Beach and Preserve has a lot to offer its visitors. On the bluffs above the beach, there are hiking trails suitable for families and a boardwalk that leads to a viewing area. The views are spectacular; on a clear day you can see Catalina Island and the whole sweep of Santa Monica Bay. It is also an excellent location to watch migrating grey whales from December to April, and dolphins are commonly sighted in these waters. A staircase leads down to the beach, on which California sea lions are often found lounging, and there are interesting tide pools to explore. Swimming, surfing, and scuba diving are popular here, as is beachcombing.
