      What a super cute park. Very scenic spots for photos. A nice green area for picnics or to just sit and have serenity. Its hidden back in a residential area. Well worth it to go and be at peace with picture opportunities for the sunrise or sunset.

      Love a morning walk all along Cliff Dr to the Crescent Bay Point Park.

      The houses along the road are gorgeous, overlooking the cliff, breathtaking. The view, the smell and sound of the ocean.

      If you admire the view you can spot a paddle boarder, a seagull, or just living.

      Thank God every morning for waking up and the opportunity to enjoy life.

      The California coast is a diverse and beautiful stretch of shoreline that spans over 840 miles. It features a variety of landscapes, from rugged cliffs and rocky shores to sandy beaches and picturesque coves. The coast is home to a wide range of wildlife, including sea lions, seals, whales, and many types of birds. Along the coast, you can find popular tourist destinations such as San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and Los Angeles, as well as many state and national parks, including Point Reyes National Seashore and Big Sur. The California coastline also offers a variety of recreational activities, such as swimming, hiking, fishing, and surfing. The ocean water temperature varies depending on the location, but generally ranges from cold in the north to warm in the south.
      Crescent Bay Point Park is one of the many places to visit. When you get a chance, highly recommend coming here.

      My pictures don't do it justice - it's gorgeous and the water is incredibly clear.

      The surf and waves are not for novice swimmers or little ones.

      Beautiful park overlooking the ocean. Grassy area. Stone benches. Natal plum plants (with long THORNS) are abundant. I am told by residents that the sunsets are beautiful from here.

      "Natal plum (Carissa macrocarpa or C. grandifolia) blooms mainly in summer, and sporadically all year long so that throughout most of the year you'll have both flowers and pretty little red fruit present on the shrub. The star-like flowers are about 2 inches (5 cm.) in diameter and have thick, waxy petals. The edible, bright red, plum-shaped fruit tastes like cranberries, and you can use it to make jam or jelly....all parts of the plant, except the fully ripe berries, are poisonous."

      Tucked away in a lovely residential area, this spot is one of the best in Laguna Beach. You can get some great photographs here & just sit & relax. Be respectful of the beautiful area & residents! Someone left trash behind in the succulents here today. Not cool!

      This is a small and amazing spot if you want to picnic outside, or just hang out. It's located in an area full of houses though, so parking can be difficult on busy days - Good luck!

      There is a small grass area where you can lay out towels, chairs, and umbrellas. Then there are benches closer to the edges of the cliff where you can sit and relax while enjoying the ocean sounds and watching the beachgoers below. What's nice is that the benches have their own little "nook" which means that you will probably get people who will stop by and take a look at the scenery, but they won't stay for very long unless they like being awkward.

      There's also an area where you can stand and look out towards the side of the cliffs for a nice photo opp.

      This is a great area and I would definitely come back with a good book!

      Small public park with great ocean view! Can get pretty busy on weekends with different events and parking can be a hassle. Some residents are nice, a few can be questioning and don't understand it's a public park. We were quiet and respectful of people enjoying their leisurely walk at the park and the residents nearby. I don't know why that particular resident kept on bugging us. One event planner was asking us to leave stating they rented the ENTIRE park for the wedding. There was a mariachi band playing so loud on the grass area. Nope, we didn't leave and enjoyed the area until sunset. Don't pay attention to narrow-minded and feeling entitled people as long as you are being respectful. No public restroom so do your business before going.

      Man what a fabulous, peaceful and gorgeous place to picnic, rest & enjoy the view. We've been here twice now and both times were definitely tons of fun!

      First off, it's great to make the drive to escape from the 120 dry global warming degree weather to 80 chill cool breeze beach degree weather. We set up our Costco mats/tent for the babies, allowed them to run around in the grass area & brought them to enjoy the beach/ocean view. Now, there isn't a playground or toys or anything like that so this place is meant for peace and relaxation.

      A lot of local residents loved bringing their dogs around too, and they're all so friendly! We ordered Dominos Pizza which was perfect! There was a nearby convenient store so we picked up some sodas & water & appreciated the view and weather.

      The ONLY thing that's pretty annoying is the parking. Because this is a small area around a somewhat small neighborhood, people are constantly driving around to find parking.

      Not only is this place great for small gatherings to picnic and enjoy, it's great for photo shoots. Whether it's for weddings or normal occasions, this place has great backgrounds & lighting! So you'll definitely get more benefits from it. Definitely will come back, especially if another heat wave hits!
