Great mural by local high school students perfectly visualise what this beach is all about. And for a big audience as well: 

“Each year, about 7 million people pass through the tunnel to the beach.“

Maybe not so secret..

A California sunset, clear skies and the sound of the ocean running over the rocks makes Strand Beach a great stop.

Commanding views of the Salt Creek beach allowed me to eat my huevos rancheros and watch the dolphins surf alongside the short boarders.   I slept really well here, though full surf days help.

The room was really clean, which I appreciated. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the property. The building and decor felt unique to the area, and there were beautiful courtyard and pool areas. They also served cookies at the front desk in the evening and muffins in the morning.
