Located on the northernmost side of Laguna Beach, Christmas Cove Beach runs right below the luxurious Montage Resort. During the wintertime, weather and ocean conditions at this beach occasionally create a temporary surf break and sandbar, which is why locals call it Christmas Cove. It is a popular destination for those who want to avoid the crowds at surrounding beaches such as Treasure Island and Goff Cove and enjoy a relatively secluded and serene beachfront. To get to this spot, drive along the Pacific Coast Highway and find parking at the Montage Resort. This treasured beach is open to the public all year, allowing visitors to enjoy Christmas whether it’s December or July.
