Show up at some stretches of beach along the coast and you’ll be shoo’d away. At others, you can walk or bike in, but there won’t be parking in beach lots. Some areas have yet to see any restrictions set by officials.
Changes along the coast about what’s allowed and what’s not are happening fast this week as official grapple with the warm holiday weekend coming up and concerns about the spread of coronavirus. Here’s a quick list that we’ll be updating as changes occur:
Los Angeles County, including Long Beach: L.A. County Department of Public Health has ordered all county beaches, piers, parking lots, beach bike paths on the sand portion of the shore, and beach access points temporarily closed to the public from Friday, July 3, to 5 a.m. Monday, July 6. State Parks will mirror those closures in Los Angeles, including Leo Carrillo State Park, Malibu Lagoon State Beach, Malibu Pier, Point Dume and Robert H. Meyer Memorial State Beach.
State Parks beaches: Bolsa Chica, Huntington State, Crystal Cove, Doheny, San Clemente and San Onofre state beaches will have parking lot closures through the holiday weekend starting on Friday, July 3, through Sunday, July 5. This may change if Gov. Gavin Newsom elects to mirror what local agencies are doing, like he announced for Los Angeles County on Wednesday, July 1.
Seal Beach: At 6 p.m. on Friday, July 3, all beach parking lots (1st Street, 8th Street and 10th Street) will be closed. At 10 p.m. Friday, all Seal Beach beaches, the pier and its restrooms, the tot lot playground, volleyball courts and other beach amenities will also be closed. These areas are scheduled to reopen on Sunday, July 5, at sunrise. However, the city may decide later to keep these areas closed until further notice.
Sunset Beach/Huntington Beach: The Huntington Beach City Council voted to close all city beaches, Huntington Harbor beaches, Sunset Beach and the pier on July 4. The city manager can opt to close on July 3 and July 5 if necessary. The bike path will remain open. State Beaches will have parking restrictions, but are still planned to be open.
