Review:
Located between Half Moon Bay and the town of Moss Beach, Ross Cove Beach is on the north side of Pillar Point. The palm-fringed beach is about a mile long and is a lovely crescent shape, which is probably responsible for the dramatic crashing waves which are often encountered at high tide. The beach is protected by substantial bluffs, which means that it is often warmer here than some other near-by beaches. The bluffs are home to the Pillar Point Bluff Park where you can go hiking, jogging or dog-walking. While the beach is ideal for sun-bathing you should not consider swimming due to strong currents.
Ross Cove Beach, 280 W. Point Street, Moss Beach, CA 94038
