West-facing beaches with golden hour potential and evening access.
Sunset Bay is a crescent-shaped cove near Cape Arago with tide pools and a campground. It's popular with surfers when large winter swells create rolling pipes of ocean. On smaller days it's sheltered and calm, suitable for intermediates.
A short walk leads from the parking lot to the sandy beach. Paddle out through the channel near the east headland to avoid shallow rocks.
