About This Beach

Wildcat Beach is a secluded coastal beach accessible only by a challenging 14-mile hike through redwood forests. It features pebbly sand, stunning cliff views, and a relatively untouched natural environment. Restrooms are present, but lack running water, and the overall experience leans towards adventurous solitude.
