La Selva
Rating: C
Be prepared to put your swimsuit on fast at La Selva Beach in the case of a beach cop driving by the sand dunes to try to roust you from the area. A few naked sunbathers show up here on a periodic basis. "It's dune-y, but also so wide open in places that rangers can drive up and down and harass people," a regular says. What little nudity occurs usually happens on weekdays or when there aren't many other people present. Use discretion.
Legal status:
Unknown.
How to find it:
Just south of Rio del Mar, look for La Selva. Drive to Manresa State Beach (see next entry), then walk north along the sand.
The beach:
Various dunes before and after homes overlooking the ocean.
The crowd:
Use with discretion; this is mostly a family beach.
Problems:
Riptides; undertow; cold water; increased law enforcement; proximity of homes.
