Quietest night ever. Internet (Verizon) 1.59/4.74 download/upload.
UPDATE: Learned later that parking here in our Sprinter overnight looks like it's illegal too.

We were lucky that it wasn’t a nice day or we would not have gotten the only spot our 25’ rig would fit. No problems no signs for no overnight the large parking lot is no longer here.

6 public 24 hour parking spots. We slept here overnight in our camper van with our 2 dogs. It was peaceful and quiet. Saw a few other campers near by.

Merveilleux de se coucher au son des vagues. Coin tranquille avec accès à la plage par une petite passerelle. Le locaux viennent le matin y prendre des marches, mais tout le monde est sympathique. On le recommande fortement pour des petites van.

This place is very overrated! Maybe it’s cuz we just came from the beaches in Florida. But water is brown and a lot of mud and water puddles on the sand.

nice spot right by the beach. Lots of locals in the early AM. including a county parks rep. that looked us up and down...no knock though it is definitely a arrive late and leave early situation. Im sure this spot is not gonna last if its being vanlife disrespected.. i.e. trash, restroom mess or anything the locals could use to shut this place down...plz be respectful and enjoy!!!

Just arrived, we ate pizza while listening to the waves crashing. Can't wait to see the sunrise!

Stayed here one night in our sprinter van without issue. Like everyone else said, great spot next to the beach. Even though it is a side street there was a lot of traffic throughout the night. Still quiet and cooler due to the ocean breeze. Only amenity is a garbage can by the beach stairs.

Great, quiet camping in beautiful neighborhood and a scenic view. Stayed two nights with no problems!

great spot! we arrived at 6pm and stayed the next day. The cops came around 4 pm and told us the neighbors had complained we were there for days which was a lie. so just be aware they will call the cops. the cop said no overnight but I would do it and leave the next morning.

Good spot. Very noisy around 4AM for us for some reason. Honking and yelling. Will be staying again tonight though. Nice white noise of waves crashing

Arrived after sunset. No one around. The sound of waves and if windy, like tonight, a sporadic hit on the long side of the van, will make you feel 'on the sea', as parking spots are parallel to the beach. Safe and quiet spot.

Quiet night here with a view of the waves. Only minor noise from locals. Arrived around 6pm and still here at 10am with no issues.

Perfect spot for the night, we pulled in late and no one was around, feel asleep to the sound of the waves. Super quiet and felt very safe!
Woke up to find another van had arrived during the night. Highly recommend.

Very nice spot, secluded between apartment buildings and almost zero noise. There is a nice park (no overnight parking) with toilets and cold showers a short walk down the beach.

Cops are in area but never stopped by.
