Eolian Dunes Preserve
Monterey Peninsula Recreational Trail, Sand City, CA 93955
About the Business
Eolian Dunes Preserve is a park located on the Monterey Peninsula Recreational Trail in Sand City, California, United States. This District open space has a rich history dating back to the Depression era, when it was used as a burn dump and later converted into a landfill. After years of being abandoned, the Park District acquired the property in 1995 and conducted remediation work to restore the area to its natural state.
The park now offers visitors the opportunity to explore native coastal dune habitat and enjoy stunning views of the bay. The property was renamed Eolian Dunes Preserve in 2007, paying homage to the wind-swept dunes that define the landscape. Visitors are encouraged to stay on designated trails, take only memories, and leave only footprints.
Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District is dedicated to providing accessible facilities and communication channels to all members of the public. The website is designed to be compatible with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and commercial screen reading software. Regular scans are conducted to ensure ongoing compliance with accessibility standards.
Come visit Eolian Dunes Preserve to experience the beauty of the dunes and enjoy a peaceful walk in nature.

Reviews
"Beautiful. Short path. Hang gliders sometimes. Overlooks bluff there are benches to sit. One little porta potty. Glass on parts of beach, be careful."
"Only reason I'm doing one star is because this beach was extremely windy made it hard to relax don't recommend bringing food if you want sand in it the beach was beautiful but other than that it was just too windy and parking was very far but at least it was free"
"I had a day off and we just needed to get out during this crazy pandemic. We kind of drove aimlessly towards Monterey and decided to pull off Hwy 1 here, near Seaside. We always pass by this place and we should have visited sooner. This is a beautiful spot, no facilities where we were, but close to strip mall. Great for walking, enjoying the shore, kicking back and letting kids or dog play. We will be back just to enjoy great CA coastline and weather."
"Amazing place for beach view. Has a great view of the Monterey Coast allowing you to see Carmel all the way to Marina. Located just behind the shopping plaza so it it a little secluded but not secluded enough to have a good size parking area. There is also some trash cans and portable toilets near by."
"Great place to take the kids to the beach since it's so secluded. People don't often know of the beaches here because it's a trail that is right behind the edgewater shopping plaza. If you want to take a side trip when your out shopping one day then this is the place you need to go for sure!"
