If your idea of the ultimate beach vacation includes tranquility, natural beauty, abundant aquatic life, water adventures, and easy access, pack your sunscreen and a towel and head to Half Moon Bay.
Our sandy shores hugging the Pacific Ocean have everything going for them - - except crowds. Plus, with more than two dozen beaches in the vicinity, activities are endless. Go tide pooling at the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve or vast state beach during low tide to get up close and personal with the region's diverse sea creatures.
Embark on a three-mile beach hike or stroll. Horseback ride. Spot harbor seals. Catch a few rays after the morning fog retreats. Explore the world's largest mainland breeding colony for the northern elephant seal. Watch pro surfers brave death-defying waves at Mavericks, home to one of the globe's largest and most perfect walls of water.
And did we mention you can simply recline with a good book at peaceful local spots?
