San Elijo State Beach is a mecca for all beach goers: hikers, picnickers, sunset lovers, surfers, divers, swimmers, and more.

Easily accessible from San Diego and Orange County, San Elijo State Beach is the perfect camping getaway. The beach is extremely popular with snorkelers and divers as it features an amazing reef to explore. 

The campground itself offers showers, potable water, toilets, and a camp store and snack bar. The camp store is open from March through December, and offers basic RV supplies, firewood, and everything you need to have an absolute blast on the beach. 

San Elijo State Beach Campground allows campfires - at the Campfire Center. Campers can reserve the campfire center in four hour increments. Email campfire.reservations@parks.ca.gov to reserve the site! If you are interested in getting a surfing lesson (or just renting some gear), Eli Howard Surf School can help you out. Call (760) 809-3069 for more information.
