DSBIA Home Page

For the fourteenth straight year, Doheny State Beach is the readers' choice as the County's "Best Camping Site" in the Orange County Register's 14th Annual Best of Orange County survey. This year, again, Doheny shares the honor with two other State Park campsites at San Onofre and San Clemente. As the writer states, "Oceanfront camping is hard to come by these days, and Doheny is the only place in Orange County where it's available." Please bookmark this page for future reference.

Surfers will want to check out The Beach Information System for the results of the most recent water quality test at their favorite beach.

Newsletter Added to Web Site	24th Annual Coastal Cleanup Day
In the interests of saving trees and postage, this and future editions of the Doheny State Beach Interpretive Association's newsletter will be made available here for viewing and printing. Volume 1, Issue 1 includes a message from DSBIA President Steve Stirrett, an update on the Aquarium, and much more. Please bookmark this page for convenience.	Mark your calendar for Saturday, September 20 and spend a rewarding half day from 9 a.m. to Noon restoring the Park to its natural beauty. Volunteers around the world will share a common purpose on that day cleaning beaches and watersheds. Meet at the San Juan Creek river mouth and bring gloves. Everything else provided.

Doheny State Beach Visitor Center Closed Indefinitely

California State Parks has closed the Doheny State Beach Center until further notice. The Visitor Center has been the home of a simulated tide pool and many aquariums and displays where Park visitors have been able to see and learn about the ocean environment.

The Gift Store and Park Office have been relocated to the lifeguard headquarters building on the beach adjacent to San Juan Creek.
