Fisherman's Cove, also known as Boat Canyon, is a small, picturesque beach in Laguna Beach, California. It is nestled in a secluded cove and offers stunning sandstone cliffs and a tranquil atmosphere. The beach is popular for activities like kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and scuba diving. However, it can be hazardous due to rocky areas and strong currents, especially at high tides. Fisherman's Cove is a marine reserve, meaning that collecting marine life or fishing is prohibited. The beach is accessible via a stairway off Cliff Drive and offers limited parking along the street. It's a local favorite for those seeking seclusion and a more laid-back beach experience.
The beach itself is small and can become almost entirely submerged during high tides. It features a cave and tide pools, making it an interesting spot for exploration. Despite its small size, Fisherman's Cove is a gem for those who enjoy quieter, more secluded beach experiences.
The surrounding area is dotted with upscale homes and offers breathtaking views, especially from the bluffs at the south end, which are perfect for picnics and sunset watching.
