Well, the beach is so famous on Instagram, very beautiful, with a lifeguards all the time, I felt safe there. You feel the breeze but is not strong, but be careful when you go to the water, the beach vis good go surfing. By the way, it was a surf competition look last Sunday. The beach all the way is only one beach with different names, so Aliso beach is the same, okay? It is worth to go and back in the same day. Just go early!
I live this place ! I will keep going back every month . This place is just always clean and has a calming atmosphere. The only struggle is the parking so come early to get a good spot. Parking is $4 per hour . Recommend the sunset
It's been 50 years since I've been on this beach. I used to live next door at Blue Lagoon. The beach is pretty much the way I remembered minus the wooden pier. The trailer park is gone too. I like Laguna, there's so many hidden beaches.
Nice and quiet. Great views of the coast. Has plenty of benches in case you're tired of walking. The bathrooms are near by. Parking is underground and they take card or cash.
It's not a huge beach, but that's what makes it feel cozy and peaceful. Bringing my furbaby here made the day even better, and we had a little picnic while enjoying the views. It was a simple but really sweet experience.
Finally got a chance to visit the famed Treasure Island Beach. It was everything we had hoped for. We visited at the start of Spring Break so we were concerned about parking. It was very busy but we were able to find city parking along PCH. A short walk later, we found ourselves strolling down to Treasure Island Beach. I really appreciated it being handicap accessible right to the sand! The view was beautiful. Lots of space to lay out. Very clean. Great place to swim and take in the awesome tide pools. We were surprised to find to marine scientists available to describe the various species that live in the tide pools onsite on a Sunday. They were great. The beach was perfect. Will need to return with more time.
Small little coves with a nice smooth, short path down to the water, from a cute little park. There's rocks to check out and climb on and tide pools. We caught the most incredible sunset here on christmas eve and can imagine the swimming is great in the summertime. We caught street parking for a small fee but can assume it's much busier in the summertime to find parking.
What a hidden gem in Laguna! We recently discovered this beautiful park which connects to the Laguna Montage hotel. Parking is super easy on a weekday and is reasonably priced. The park is stunning. You get some of the best views of Laguna Beach. There are stairways leading you down to the beaches. Also very pet friendly! Our little pug had a blast here. We can't recommend this spot enough!
Beautiful beach. Love walking along the shoreline and listening to the sound of the waves. I love exploring the tide pools and see what creatures are in there.
This has got to be the most beautiful Beach in Orange County that I have ever seen! I've lived here (Central OC) all my life and and did not know about it! My husband was having a procedure at Saddleback Hospital and I had time to kill, so I took a short drive here. The pictures I took of it are just stunning and I use them for wallpaper on my phone. I love them. And I loved this beach. I was there in September 2024. It was not crowded on a Monday. BUT I did come close to drowning there! So I want to warn people to be careful because I was just walking on the shore and the tide came in and knocked me right over! A lady I encountered told me the same thing happened to her! But it is still beautiful!! I got lucky and found pay parking close by. It's a little tricky to find also but so worth it!! And there is a bit of a hill walk to get to it Stairs and a ramp. It's gorgeous. If you get a chance to go, it looks like a beach in Hawaii!!
By far the most beautiful beach I've ever been on. The landscaping was amazing. I will tell you there isn't a lot of beach so pick your spot wisely. I love that there's restrooms and there's a place for you to get a cold beverage if you like, it was a really great time and I'm looking forward to going back.
One of things that I love about knowing someone that lives in Southern California is that they know where some of the better beach spots are at. Treasure Island Beach was nice and clean and not too busy when we came. It is south of the Montage Resort in Laguna Beach. We ended parking in the neighborhoods and had to make the long walk down. But it was worth it to check out his beautiful beach. Treasure Island Beach is on the north end of the same large cove that begins at Aliso Beach Park. The large rock outcroppings that block the waves help keep the water nice and clear. There is a natural rock arch that is fun to check out. Overall we had a fun day throwing around a football and chilling out at this little hidden gem.

This is a breathtaking beach. The views are like pictures from a magazine. It's definitely a romantic and scenic view to walk around and enjoy the day. However, this is not a kid friendly beach if kids want to go inside the water and play. There are lots of safety rules. Especially last week since waves were so high. Parking was such a disaster. I do not recommend following the parking structure because you will get stuck and I believe it fit about 30ish cars. Find parking along the street. It was my first time going and I observed and saw people just standing getting feet wet. The lifeguards told me that this is one of the most dangerous beaches in the county. People still laid out and kids brought sand toys to play on sand. I think I went on a bad week. We'll have to try another time. It's such a beautiful beach with clear blue water! Till next time. read more

It's a beautiful beach, clear water, blue skies That's the good. The bad? Bureaucracy has ruined the beach going experience. You don't need that many rules for a beach. I do suppose that how you keep a beach beautiful but the cost is the freedom to actually enjoy the beach. Oh and the sand is rough, like hurts to walk on. Someone actually said today that it feels like walking on sand paper read more

I've lived somewhat local but inland for 23 years and this is the first time I came to this beach. The parking was easy in the parking garage on Wesley, but there's also parking in the center across the street. The walk down behind the Montage to the beach is incredibly beautiful while the beach itself feels almost kinda private. There's a couple areas with rocks that go into the ocean that would be fun for exploring a little with kids. It's probably one of the prettiest beaches in this area. read more

Stunning beach. All around it is very beautiful. Super clean, beautiful views. My favorite beach in all of laguna read more
Beautiful Beautiful beautiful! I've gone to this beach 3 times the past 2 weeks. Would highly ask everyone to come here for a relaxing day. Water felt refreshing. It is winter so it wasn't crowded. I can imagine summer being very busy here. Recommend coming in the morning and staying all day. There is a small parking garage and parking across the street. read more
Another gorgeous beach that is a must see in the area. I was staying in Main beach and took the free trolley to Victoria beach then walked down the beach .. occasionally having scamper over rocks or walls to see more. This was one i came across and i walked up some stairs and viewed it from above also. Very picturesque, great for photography and sunsets. people walking there dogs and playing on the beach, exercising and yoga. there were flowers from above that made the pics every more gorgeous ... i sometimes had to hunker down or angle the camera to get the effects I wanted. read more
This little beach is heaven on earth. I've seen a lot of beaches and this one tops the list . It is absolutely gorgeous. The water is a clear color blue. The sand is clean and just as gorgeous. I highly recommend seeing this beach . Put it on your bucket list . Parking is tight . That's common for beaches . I saw a very small paid parking lot , in an underground garage . We parked there . Im so in love with this beach !! I've never seen a beach with such stunning landscaping. It's immaculate. read more

Found this beach when searching the web for a dog friendly beach to visit while in town. This beach is SO clean with such a beautiful stretch of coast! If you're looking for a nice place to take the family & dogs, this is a great option. Please note, dogs are only allowed during the winter months. The beach has a small pay-to-park garage located near the walk way but, it may be tough to find parking if you don't show up early. Otherwise, there is a lot of metered street parking. Accessibility allows for wheelchairs, strollers, & wagons to enter into the beach down a few steep ramps, emphasis on the steep as it may be tough to push things up the ramp. Outdoor showers are also available. I will definitely be visiting the beach when back in town :) read more

Beautiful beach, lots of tide pools. No bathrooms, parking is limited. The character limit is stupid. read more
Yes this is such a beautiful beach everyone could see on postcards. I took my dogs here since winder time allow to have dogs on the beach with leash. There was a parking under the Treasure Island Park but I just park along the street from PCH and also I saw meters on PCH too. The walking path is well maintenance and so beautiful. There were dog waste bags and also public bathroom on Montage next to public art life force. It was a bit gloomy at the beginning but actually I liked it without too much sunlight. My dogs enjoyed beaches and also paw friends and nice people. read more

This beach is a wonderful place tucked away in Laguna. Most tourists go to Main Beach, but this beach is mostly locals only. Not as crowded and have its hidden gems! The tide pools and marine life are something to watch out for. It is very fascinating to see ocean life up close (remember not to disturb them). There is also a lot of amazing rock formations here. There is a small cave and a big one. It is not recommended to go to the big cave during high tide. Be careful when climbing the rocks because it can be slippery. Besides that, you can come here and enjoy the peace and quiet. read more

Ideal beach for taking engagement/family/maternity photos. Picturesque view. I have only been there after 6PM, not overly crowded around that time. However, parking is a little tricky. The parking structure near the beach is almost always full. There is a bigger parking lot across from the beach on Wesley Dr if you don't mind the walk. It's $3/h & free after 7PM. read more

I was recommended to bring my family to this beautiful beach and we surely were not let down. I heard parking is scarce during peak times and since we arrived around 1030-11am, I did not want to take any chances passing up any nearby parking. We parked by the treasure island park street where there were meters. Very fair pricing 3 hours max at $4.50 total price. I was originally going to park at montage valet but it now costs $60 for overnight parking and $25 if you dine in their restaurant and get it validated. When other yelpers said it was quite a walk, I thought a few steps here and there. No biggie. Holy smokes there was a lot of stairs. Don't get me wrong, they also have a handicap ramp but we didn't have a rolling cart to put all our kids beach stuff in, so we had to carry it all the way down. The road back up was also very challenging but at least we had a 2.5 hour break to enjoy the beach. I love how there are benches (probably placed by the montage hotel) to over look the ocean and observe the sunset. The trails and walk ways were nicely maintained. The beach was free of trash, no sand fleas and everyone observed social distancing guidelines. The water was so clean and clear. This place must be a scuba divers paradise. It was our first time checking out tide pools and the coastal curves. My girls had a lot of fun and we were so glad to have stopped by. read more
What a beautiful and clean beach! I didn't know the water can look so clear as if it was Hawaii! Maybe after the pandemic shutdown, less people went to the beach and allowed the beach to clear up? I hope it stays like this now that everyone is flocking to the beach. I also love the convenience of the small parking lot right at the entrance of the beach and the view as you are walking down to the beach is so beautiful. There is a wash area right before walking into the sand and before heading up the stairs back to the parking lot. Such a nice set up. I already want to come back but it is pretty crowded now at the beach. read more

Very observant life guards. I took a tumble in the harsh waves. Before I was able to regain my footing, the lifeguard was already at my aid. The beach is clean & public parking is small but convenient $3/hr until 7pm. Public's restrooms/ shower located to the side of the parking garage. Although there are stairs there is also a ramp for easy beach access. More than a few photographers populate the beach around sunset. Other than, I highly recommend this beach. read more

Ask the Community - Treasure Island Beach
Are you allowed in the water? Are sharks seen this way?
Yes, you're allowed in the water. About sharks, I haven't seen any there.
My parents are older and cant walk very well. Is this a place they could drive to and have a picnic without walking much?
No it isn't. Usually, if you can find parking, it's a bit of a walk and then you have a few flights of stairs to get down to the beach.
Are dogs allowed on beach on leash?
DOG RULES 9 am - 6 pm between June 15th – September 10th 6 am - 10 pm between September 11th – June…
Can we use portable camp stove to grill and have lunch in one of those tables at the picnic area?
Are the fire pits open?
I'm not sure but if I had to guess I would say yes because everything else is open.
Is this a rocky beach?
There are rocks in some parts of this beach but there are a lot of open spaces to swim or lay out where there are no rocks. The sand itself is not too rocky either. I hope this helps.
How is the bathroom? shower?
Bathrooms are clean. Shower right before the beach is not working last time I tried (a few weeks ago).
Is this a dog friendly beach?
It is dog friendly during the winter months, after September 15th (stated on the signs to your right as you enter the beach) through the early spring!
