Doheny State Beach Campground has 121 campsites sites (about 55 are premium beachfront sites) for RVs, trailers and tents. There are also flush toilets, hot showers and a dump station located at the campground. Group camping is also available. Each campsite has a table, fire ring and grill.

Doheny State Beach has a variety of outdoor recreation activities including camping, swimming, hiking, biking, sunbathing, beach combing, surf fishing, horseshoes and much more. There is a 5-acre lawn/day use in the northern area with picnic facilities and volleyball courts. Surfing is popular, but not right in front of the campground (nasty shore break there), but is restricted to the north end of the beach.   There is also a marina and boat launch within a mile.

The 62-acre park, administered by the California Department of Parks & Recreation, is at the mouth of San Juan Creek. With over a mile of white, sandy beach and some of the warmest water and best swimming and surfing in California, it’s no wonder that people return here year after year to vacation.

San Onofre Bluffs Campground is another option and is about 12 miles south on Highway 5.
