Paradise Cove Beach

Got stung by parking as did others I see. It’s $15 on a weekend AFTER you get it validated. Validation means minimum $30 spend at the cafe. I bought a t-shirt ($35) as was heading to Malibu Seafood down the road for lunch. It’s a great spot and a lovely pier but the parking cost is downright robbery 😐

Gorgeous, clean beach. Not many people. Costs $$ to park.

My husband and I were in LA on vacation for a couple days from Philadelphia Pennsylvania and Paradise Cove was recommended. We decided to go for the day. We arrived there early had a really nice breakfast and then waited for the beach club to open. We picked out two great chairs in front of the ocean and thought it was such a peaceful beautiful place. We proceeded to fall asleep for an hour. We awoke to screaming children digging and playing right in front of our chairs. A Family had rented two seats next to us, but was six people sharing two chairs with very rambunctious kids. The grandmother and mother were actually coming over to our side in front of our chairs taking pictures of their children playing, completely blocking our view of the ocean. We spent $250 to spend a peaceful day on the beach and had to leave after only being there for about an hour because we were so disgusted and could not relax. It is fine to have children, but people should be considerate and not allow them to play in front of people who have spent a lot of money for their chairs. Maybe have a separate area with families with children. I will not recommend Paradise Cove to my friends because it is a huge waste of money and time.

Beautiful beach but rip off parking. If you don’t eat / drink at the restaurant and validate your ticket the parking can be $50+. The food at at restaurant is not very good & expensive for what it is but the beach, and pier and views are gorgeous. Worth a visit but also with knowing what your getting for the $$$

My family and I visited Paradise Cove Beach. It was amazing! The beach was clean, peaceful, and calming. We had a great time!

You're driving out here anyways, just fork over the extra cash and go to an incredible, and sparsely populated beach! With out food, we only paid $10 as opposed to the $45 for four hours. So worth it, especially after seeing how packed the public beaches were.

It's a great little beach, although it costs a lot to park there, $65 to park, and if you eat or drink something you can validate the parking and pay $15, aside of that it is a great beach to hang out and chill with a beer, yes! It's allowed to buy beer and take it down the beach. You can sit and eat inside the resteraunt too but if you don't want to wait you can just visit the little bar behind the restaurant, right in front of the beach, and buy some food or drinks there and sit right on the beach.
A must go beach at least once. 🏖

Beautiful beach! Cabanas are offered here! Such beautiful scenery and waves when I went! For sure recommend going closer to sunset!
Bathrooms are really well kept here! Parking when I went was about $65 dollars and parking was a little tricky! But we'll worth it!
