Fletcher Cove Beach Park

Fletcher Cove's crescent-shaped beach is protected by cliffs on both sides and is located near South Coast Highway 101. Backing the beach is a well-kept park with public facilities that feel decidedly more upscale than your average city-owned playground. For group outings, head to Fletcher Cove and take advantage of the many public facilities available at the well-kept beach and park. Basketball courts, a playground, outdoor showers, and picnic areas will appeal to families with children.

There are a few areas in Fletcher Cove dedicated to panoramic beach views, including one with built-in binoculars. Check out Culture Brewing's nearby tasting room for hoppy IPAs and nitro milk stouts after a day at the beach. Paved paths down to the beach make Fletcher Cove much more accessible than other small beaches in the area, and the numerous facilities available are an added bonus. There is on-site parking available, but visitors can also get off the Solana Beach train at the nearby stop.
