Leo Carrillo State Park (Tide Pool)

In Malibu about 1 hour north of Los Angeles, Leo Carrillo State Park is a top family-friendly tidepool spot with dramatic rocky coves, sea caves, and extensive intertidal zones exposed at low tide. Pools teem with aggregating anemones, purple and ochre sea stars, crabs (including hermit and shore varieties), chitons, limpets, mussels, barnacles, small fish, and occasional octopuses hiding in crevices. Highly popular for its scenic beauty, dog-friendly beach sections, camping, trails, and picnic areas - perfect for a full day with kids; ranger-led tours sometimes available. Best during minus tides - watch for slippery algae and sneaker waves; sturdy shoes essential.
