Doheny State Beach Concerts

This is a very nice park to end a bike ride t or go to via driving. There is a fee for drivers through. I only visited where San Juan Creek met the ocean.

I grew up in orange county back when there were still trains running veges across the 5 Fwy. In all my time I'd never visited Doheny, except for the Beach Road access. Today a patient and myself visited the main beach and was I ever blown away. The way it's laid out really reminded me of north OC beaches and LA. Just a great place to sit and see the waves, surfer's and, occasional fishing trolly heading out to sea. I assure you, visit and if not impressed or happy I'll give you a number to refund (1-800-OC-Rocks). Seriously tho come visit, check out the DoHo Cafe and just enjoy the splendor of the OC Lifestyle.

Pay entry fee online, clean beach (little litter like a crushed coke can and lots of seaweeds), lots of people playing volleyball on 🏐 courts, many 🏄‍♂️ 🌊 🏄‍♀️ hang out mostly near Second Spot, which is just a bit morth of the Main Lifeguard Tower (saw one lifeguard on duty as he picked up the orange traffic cones off of Thor's Hammer (embankment from the San Juan Creek). Very family friendly, recommend jacket cuz of wind from ocean. On the north portion of Doheny State Beach (DSB), there are many picnic tables, many trashcans, along with a fairly big patch of green grass that we walked around the bike path to avoid stepping on the beautiful lawn. There are horseshoe tosses, too! Many electric bikes roamed past us and onto sandy beach. Only service dogs are allowed, must be on leash, and attended by an adult. There were RVs in the north parking lot. Little internet research showed that DSB has no electric or water connections, hence a "dry" camping ground. There is a snack bar called Doho Cafe that you can also order your food and drinks online (see photo). You can also rent bikes and work together to get to all parts of the park. Restroom has open skylight, very clean, has what seems to be shower stalls, but no shower heads (so, dressing room?). There is a shower head outside of the restroom to wash sand off of your feet. Would visit again during the off-season! Enjoy!
