A couple days after Christmas we went to Victoria Beach in Laguna for a quick picnic. The tips on Yelp for finding this hidden spot were helpful. Park on the beach side of PCH for free! Do not even attempt to park in the residential neighborhood, or you are basically asking for a ticket.
Walk down Victoria Street…
and admire the multi-million dollar homes…
…until you dead end into Sunset.
There you will see a set of stairs which lead you to the beach.
Take the stairs down…
to Victoria Beach:
Climb over the rocks to the right and you will find a children’s pool…
…and then the “castle”!
