Jones Beach
A far cry from Jones Beach in New York, with its white sand and hoards of people, California's Jones Beach is a beautiful black sand beach in the Sinkyone Wilderness State Park. It is one of the few beaches on California's Lost Coast that you can access by car -- it's only a mile hike from the Needle Rock Visitor Center. It's a 6 mile drive from the the small community of Shelter Cove that includes a steep descent on a one lane dirt road that is impassable in wet weather. The beach is quite small except at low tide, when there are wonderful tide pools.
We were lucky to have a sunny afternoon after a foggy start to the day, More to come ...
Wishing you a lovely weekend! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.
