Bolsa Chica Beach  Seen from Wetlands on Clear Day

 

 
 
 
Bolsa Chica State Beach - California

Bolsa Chica State Beach

Most days you will not see this view of Bolsa Chica State Beach. Rarely can you grab such clear glimpses of Long Beach skyline in the distance. On a clear day you will be able to see the whales painted on Long Beach Arena circular building in the largest whale mural painted by famed artist Wyland, while most other days you will see no building at all.

Bolsa Chica State Beach is connected to the mainland, but because of the wetlands across the street (Bolsa Chica wetlands,) it almost appears that this state beach is a peninsula.

Most popular for its easy freeway access from cities north of Orange County, this beach charges flat flee admission into the parking (usually around $15) and features firerings, lots of sand, RV camping on one end of the beach, and further south there's a dog beach where you can let the pets roam free.
