Thornhill Broom Beach

Point Mugu State Park includes a five-mile stretch of shoreline that includes Thornhill Broom Beach. It's one of the park's longest beaches, though it's not especially wide, and low tide is the ideal time to come. The beach is breathtakingly beautiful, with the Santa Monica Mountains offering a stunning backdrop.

Thornhill Broom Beach has no designated parking, therefore most tourists park on the side of the PCH. The beach is ideal for taking photos or relaxing on a chair while taking in the scenery. A large dune across the PCH from the beach offers uphill exploration and a difficult ride back down. The Sycamore Canyon Campground of the state park, located south of Thornhill Broom Beach, has over 40 campsites for tents and RVs. This popular campground is within walking distance to the coast's Sycamore Cove Day-Use Area as well as a sprawling network of hiking trails.
