Located in southern San Clemente, Lost Winds Beach – which is also known as Lasuen, Lasuens Beach, and Los Alamos Beach –is a narrow strip of beach area situated below a blufftop residential area. The beach is named after Padre Fermin Francisco de Lasuen, a prominent Franciscan missionary who was the founder of nine catholic missions in the California region. The beach is a narrow strip of sand with sparse amounts of vegetation. The beach rarely has dry sand due to constant contact with water during high tide. The beach has a railroad and the San Clemente Pedestrian Beach Trail (which is also called San Clemente Coastal Trail) running parallel along its length. The beach area is popular among surfers and volleyball enthusiasts. Although Lost Winds Beach has a lifeguard tower, lifeguards here are posted only when the beach area is crowded. The beach does not allow pets.

If you're looking for a restaurant, Nick’s San Clemente is a high-end restaurant offering a memorable fine dining experience that serves delectable and rich comfort food including fried chicken, sandwiches, and steaks, and is known for its signature butter cake with berry compote and ice cream. A family-friendly modestly priced option is LaRoccos Pizzeria, which offers delicious New York-style pizza generously endowed with toppings and features a kids menu.
