Landscape Victoria beach, So Cal

Victoria beach, So Cal · 05:39 PM

I already posted the tower shots, but here is the rest. I only discovered the place the night before on Google maps...

Access.

Some sort of surf rental area?

Hillside house and stairs to the beach.

A favorite location. Another couple started up as I was leaving.

The tower (for a staircase) previously posted.

Tide pool.

Steps to nowhere.

Pool and tower.

Steps to somewhere.

Shoreline.

This was built as a wading pool, I think.

Tree/house.

Still no one here.

Beach houses.

Parking is usually an ordeal, but I got very lucky, especially on such a nice day.

you got some cool shots here Kyle. We have spent a lot of time in Laguna, but never visited this part of the beach. I have no idea why not, it must be hidden from us normal tourists.

Yes, but you have fall-color leaves, and, what is it...snow?

I lived in LB for about a year as a young teen a hundred years ago, but never heard of this place.

Wish I was sitting on the beach right now.

Interesting! We go to Laguna Beach for a weekend every year, but I've never even heard of Victoria Beach! Where is it, with respect to the main public beach area in downtown Laguna?

That chaise lounge will probably still be there for you.

It is exactly 2.01 miles per Google Earth south of the Laguna Canyon/PCH intersection. Parking is... a beach, so you might park on the eastern neighborhood and huff it to the other side. I just got lucky. The access is at Victoria/Sunset Terrace.

There is more awesomeness on the next 2 points to the south :-) I will have to go back.
