Bean Hollow and Pebble Beach are located off Highway 1 
about 16 miles south of Half Moon Bay. Both of these beaches are small pocket sized with limited parking. Connecting the two is a mile long nature trail. The trail does have a few steps to climb and few bridges to cross, but overall it’s quite tame. You will experience some great views of the rugged coast. You are also likly to see a few Harbor Seals swimming in the surf and sun bathing on the rocks, but for my money the tide pools by Pebble Beach is the big show. These tide pools are easily accesesable off from the main trail. Low tide of course is always the best time to explore. Bathrooms are located at both beaches and there are a couple of benches located next to the trail. This is a great little 2 mile + tide pools gettaway for the entire family.
