Or you can take one of the world’s largest and longest single-lift passenger tramways to the wooded swath of wilderness. San Jacinto State Park by car or foot from Idyllwild, a popular Southern California mountain town. A few years ago, I had luck finding a spot by keeping tabs on the Reserve California website - a Saturday campsite became available due to a last-minute cancellation, and I was able to grab it.īest for: Hiking, getting a high-up view of the desert It’s not easy to snag a campsite at Carpinteria State Beach (especially on a weekend night), but it’s worth the effort. The waves are often gentle compared with other areas of the California coastline, and the beach includes the Tomol Interpretive Play Area for children, a nod to the region’s Chumash history and traditions. (No worries if you’re not an experienced camper in case you forget to pack any essentials, there’s an Albertson’s less than a mile away.)Ĭarpinteria’s family-friendliness is part of the appeal.

Included on my colleague Christopher Reynolds’ list of the 101 best California experiences, the Watts Towers are “an architectural wonder and one of the greatest acts of recycling California has ever seen.”
I could try to describe the park’s soaring steel core towers, the tallest of which reaches - seemingly impossibly - 99 ½ feet into the sky.īut I recommend seeing the one-of-a-kind landmark for yourself.
