La Selva Beach - all beaches

This stunning beach has been a lifesaver for my family during the pandemic. With its vast expanse, we always felt secure here because we could easily maintain social distance. Even now, after two years, we continue to frequent this pristine beach several times during the summer. The breathtaking scenery and pristine surroundings make it a perfect destination for sunbathing and relaxation. The only drawback is the parking fee if you want to park closer to the beach. However, there is a trail leading down to the beach, which can be a bit challenging for the elderly due to the elevation. But if you are willing to walk a few minutes, you can park for free in the large parking lot just outside. This is undoubtedly my favorite beach to unwind and soak up some sun.

The beach is stunning, well-maintained, and conveniently accessible. The premium sites are particularly breathtaking, with stunning views of the beach and the surrounding natural beauty. Additionally, the sites are generously spaced and offer plenty of room to spread out and relax.

This is undoubtedly one of my most cherished beaches, but I secretly wish to keep it all to myself. I can only hope that visitors will treat it with the utmost respect and maintain its pristine condition, as it remains the only secluded beach in the charming town of Aptos.

This beach is perfect if all you're looking for is a place to relax. You'll need to bring your own food and activities, but it's great for kids. I'd give it three stars, though, because there's only one bathroom, so you may have to wait up to ten minutes to rinse off.

This beach is my absolute favorite spot! It's always immaculate and well-maintained. I had the pleasure of visiting on New Year's Day and was pleasantly surprised to find it relatively uncrowded. I was able to secure a parking spot in the lot, which was a bonus. Additionally, there's a charming walking trail that's easily accessible from the parking lot.

The beach is stunning and offers ample space to relax. The sunsets are truly breathtaking. The parking situation is decent, but the cleanliness of the bathrooms leaves something to be desired.
