If you are planning to go into the water near Rincon Park County beach, we recommend being careful as the water here is known to have dangerous rip currents. In addition, we recommend avoiding swimming in the water near the southern part of the beach in case of recent rains, as during this period the Rincon Creek flows into the water near the beach, possibly contaminating it with microbes. The water near the beach is home to many animals including seals, sea lions, dolphins, and migrating grey whales (generally between December and May). The area near the northern part of the beach is sometimes used for clothing-optional visits. However, if you are planning a clothing-optional visit to Rincon Park County Beach, we recommend being careful as nudism is considered an act of public indecency which is legally punishable by the local law enforcement authorities.
