Whittington Beach Park

Whittington Beach Park is a quiet, scenic coastal park with rocky black sand and lava formations, tide pools, and the visible remains of an old pier that hint at the area's port history. Visitors praise picnic tables, BBQs, large shade trees (including a notable banyan), and easy access with nearby parking and some accessible routes. Wildlife sightings such as sea turtles and occasional whales are reported. The shoreline is rocky and currents can be strong, so swimming is generally not recommended. Amenities are basic; some visitors note porta-potty cleanliness and maintenance issues. A posted sign indicates dogs are not allowed, though reports vary.
