5.0 out of 5 stars More than a Guide, June 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Exploring Southern California Beaches (Paperback)
From the Mexican border to Ragged Point in San Luis Obispo county, this book delivers the goods on 170 beaches.

The directions are extremely clear, which is very important in both the chaos of LA and the unsigned rural coast of central Californa.

This book explores more than just beaches. If it's near the water or even under the water, it's in this book. Web addresses and phone numbers acompany the detailed info and descriptions.

But, the true beauty of this book are the essays. Extremely well-written insights into things like California weather, Sand, Kites, Surfing, SCUBA, Sailing, Tidal Pool, and more.

There's even an appendix with the average water temperatures in each of the book's 19 regions!

My only complaint is that they could have used some more indents and bold characters.

Well worth the price. I'm sure to need another copy after I wear this one out.

I got this book after seeing it on the Travel Channel. It is a fun book and extremely informative! I'd write more.. but it has me stoked to hit the beach!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guid, July 4, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I was looking specifically for a book that would tell me where the good body-surfing is. This book has all kinds of good information, including that kind. The authors are not afraid to state their opinions. We'll see how reliable they are. But I am impressed.
