bolsa chica state beach
This three mile long stretch of southern California coastline was designated as a state beach in 1960 and by the year 2000 it was time for a major reinvestment in infrastructure to support the constant use. Work included a complete reconfiguration of the park entrance, new headquarters, lifeguard tower, operations center, comfort stations and concession pavilions.
