Half Moon Bay State Beach

This four-mile stretch of broad sandy coastline is made up of Francis, Venice, and Dunes beaches, all offering spots for sunbathing, fishing, and picnicking. Joggers and bicyclists enjoy the Coastside Trail that runs along the beachside bluffs, while equestrians take to the parallel horseback riding path. Facilities include restrooms, picnic areas, and a campground at Frances Beach.
