9Black’s Beach, San Diego, California
Below the cliffs near La Jolla, Black’s Beach is known for its broad Pacific views and a notably secluded feel. Access involves a steep route down from the bluffs, and the terrain can be challenging; check trail conditions before setting out and avoid the cliffs themselves.
Nudity is not permitted under current local rules, despite the beach’s historic reputation for clothing-optional use. Confirm the latest regulations before visiting, and plan for limited facilities at the shore. The climb back up is an excellent reminder that beach days can count as exercise.
