Leslie found the coolest beach online and we were up for the adventure today. The beach is called 1000 Steps Beach in Laguna. The name sounded a little scary (it was actually only 250 steps), but it was still a great workout! Before we got to the stair entrance, we spotted an Open House at one of the oceanfront properties along PCH. We set our stuff down in the driveway and took a tour. It was unbelievable and can be ours for only $6.8 million! Sigh!
We came back to reality, packed light (as suggested on Yelp) and made the steep trek down.
The beach was even prettier in person, complete with lifeguard and bathrooms!
Unfortunately, the tide was too high to enter the caves, but the girls had fun playing in the very clear water and posing for a photo shoot.
We packed a cooler of food to last the day, each got a nap in and lounged into the early evening.
The steps looked a little daunting for our trek back to the car, but it wasn't as bad as we thought. Our calves burned a bit so we took our time. The beach was well worth these crazy steps. I still can't believe some of the oceanfront homeowners had trams to get them down! Happy to say we crossed another great beach off of our SoCal list!
