This beach site is located just north of the city of Half Moon Bay. It's described as having a more secluded feeling than other nearby beaches. That may be because parking is limited. Because of that, we restrict the days and time we will perform weddings here to weekdays in summer.
It is a pristine white-sand beach with both crashing waves and bluffs that offer fabulous backdrops for a small wedding.
Another nice feature of this site is its location. It's situated near quality lodging and dining options, making it a good option for keeping everything close by.
