Pacifica State Beach, formerly known as San Pedro Beach, attracts droves of surfers. Longboarding is a popular sport here, which draws a young, athletic crowd.

There is a Taco Bell conveniently located close by, for those post-surf session munchies. Swimming is not recommended due to the cold water and formidable rip currents, but many people seem to risk it anyway. There are public restrooms, as well as showers to rinse away the salt water.

Fishing is permitted here, as well as clamming. Dogs are allowed, provided they are on a leash. Nestled near a cove of Pine and Eucalyptus trees, this rocky beach has a laid-back atmosphere.

There are also several other nearby beaches worth visiting in the area. Among them are Rockaway Beach, Grey Whale Cove (a nekkid beach), Montara State Beach, Dunes Beach, and Venice Beach.
