Beaches in Avalon, CA

Fresh reviews:

It’s kind of hard to rate a beach! It was clean and the water clear and beautiful but of course it was packed ! It just a little creepy that so many boats are parked right in front of all the swimmers ! I worried about the boat fuels/oils damaging the marine life or little kids swimming nearby.

Descanso Beach

Very small crowded rocky cove. No actual beach to relax on. Only one very crowded stairway. Not all that much to see underwater, I have definitely seen better snorkeling. Facilities are about a block away. If you looking for some snorkeling action, you may want to consider hiring a boat to take you out.
