Beautiful!! Not crowded at all. I love the sandy cliffs surrounding the beach. The visitors center was also nice. There are relatively spacious bathrooms.

I was surprised with how close you could actually get up to an elephant seal here, even with cones backing you up. This beach is tremendous, and the cliff edges were impressive - adds to the grand scale of the area. The drive to the beach is also really cute with all the cows and elk you see.

There are so many reasons to come to Drake's Beach. It's a beautiful geologic site on the end of Point Reyes. It's an amazing Beach with some ice cold ocean water. And it's a beautiful place to hike and walk. You'll find tons of sand dollars on the beach. Read up on the geology of Point Reyes.
