Heisler Park’s oceanfront paths and cliffside viewpoints are perfect for short, unhitched outings from your campsite, while Crystal Cove State Park offers tide pools, beaches, and inland trails that pair well with a basecamp. The scenic sweep of Laguna Canyon Road provides a classic coastal drive with overlooks and trailheads that are easy to reach from nearby campgrounds. Pacific Coast Highway runs close to these sites and offers convenient access, marked pullouts, and public parking areas for short stops. Plan to unhitch your trailer for longer hikes or beach walks and check parking rules and size limits before setting out.
