Asilomar State Beach is located on the northwestern side of the Monterey Peninsula in the city of Pacific Grove. The area is a narrow, one-mile strip of sandy beach and rocky coves. A ¾ mile coast walking trail – the Asilomar Coast Trail – is open to pedestrians. The beach is within the boundary of the Asilomar Marine Reserve, a Marine Protected Area. All marine resources, animals and features (including shells and rocks) are protected. No collecting or fishing is allowed. Please Note: There are no restrooms or picnicking facilities on the State Beach. Restrooms open to the public are located at the Phoebe Hearst Social Hall inside the Conference Grounds. Dogs are permitted on the state beach and the coast trail, but must be leashed at all times and be in the immediate control of the handler.
