A starring location in popular films like Inception, Point Break, and Gidget, Leo Carillo State Beach deserves its own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Named after radio and TV performer, Leo Carillo, this 1.5 mile stretch of sand is a hot spot for observing marine life, beachcombing, and soaking up the sun. Natural points of interest include tidepools, easy to advanced hike trails, and gorgeous coastal caves. In town for Earth Day in April? Pack your sunscreen and beach chairs to attend Whale Fest, a fun day of whale appreciation and environmental awareness. Who knows? You might even spot whales during their annual migration!
