Crystal Cove State Park

Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Pacific Coast Highway, Crystal Cove State Park is a picturesque expanse of beachfront coves and coastal cliffs. The park’s natural beauty and sandy beach draw visitors from the Newport Beach area, who come to explore its diverse landscapes. The Crystal Cove Historic District adds a touch of history to the scenic setting. One of the park’s highlights is its kelp forest, renowned for its rich biodiversity. Today, visitors can enjoy the tranquil coves, hike along the cliffs, and immerse themselves in the vibrant marine ecosystem.
