Review:

You will find Pistachio Beach just north of the Pigeon Point Light Station State Historic Park, where it offers a broad sandy beach ideal for sun-bathing. While no camping or fires are allowed on state beaches, Pistachio Beach is ideal for a picnic. Like many of the beaches in the area, you will need to walk a little distance to reach the sand – a short trails leads past a farm with a barn and you will be able to spot the Light Station to your south. The best time to visit Pistachio Beach is at low tide when you will be able to explore the rock pools at both ends of the beach.

Pistachio Beach, 9050 Cabrillo Hwy, Pescadero, CA 94060
