Sunset Trail Campground
Sunset Trail Campground
Sunset State Beach Campground offers 90 campsites across three areas (Dunes Camp, Pine Hollow Camp, and South Camp) with accommodations for tents and RVs up to 31 feet, located 16 miles south of Santa Cruz on Monterey Bay.
The campground provides year-round camping with showers, water, and fire pits, plus beach access for fishing and windsurfing, though swimming is hazardous due to strong rip currents and cold water.
Note that there is no RV dump station on-site (nearest is 10 miles away at New Brighton State Beach), and the beach has strict environmental protections including leashed dogs allowed only in designated areas.
