Editorial Review for New Brighton State Park – by Mitchell Anderson
The View
Wrapped loosely in the eddies of the coastal breeze, the scent of brine mingles with that of pine and eucalyptus. Lush vegetation and scattered wild berry vines surround the campgrounds. In the late summer, monarch butterflies arrive in the midst of their epic journey from the north to overwinter in the park. From the campsite, the long stretch of beach below can be accessed by a pleasant walk or by a short car ride to the parking lot.
Features
There are 112 campsites available on a first come, first served basis. Towering trees provide shade for the campsites and the picnic areas. Hiking trails, beach rentals and nature programs are available. Amenities include restrooms, showers and an RV sanitation station. Food, lodging and supplies are available nearby.
