Crystal Cove State Park:
Rare Intact Coastline Offers Plentiful Possibilities for Land and Water Lovers...
Crystal Cove State Park, located within the historic Irvine Ranch is a place unlike any other in Southern California.
With beaches, bluffs, tide pools, and a backcountry full of extraordinary ocean and mountain views, the Park is
truly a trip back in time. The masterpiece is completed by the recent restoration of quaint, ocean-front cottages
available for public use which will soon be complemented by a new overnight campground. With three-and-a-half miles
of unspoiled beach and approximately 2,800 acres of wooded canyons, bluffs and trails; this spectacular treasure is a
haven for rare species and protected habitats as well as recreational users, including mountain bikers, hikers,
and equestrians.
