Fisherman's Cove
Laguna Beach, CA
Free (street parking metered or limited)
By Simir Shah
Kid suitability: medium-low. It's a tiny, rocky cove reached by stairs on the north side of a condo complex on the 600 block of Cliff Drive, with metered street parking and no restrooms. The city has a Fisherman's Cove access rebuild in design (new stairway, railings and a lifeguard tower, concept review July 2026), so check for construction closures before you go. Laguna's tide pools are a Marine Protected Area: look, don't touch or take anything, and never turn over rocks.
