Super quiet, serene setting perfect for non powered small craft to paddle or sail. One of the few places where dogs can run the beach without a leash. Only 27 sites, so go during the week to get one, as they're first come first served. Flush toilets and hot shower, but no wood collecting, so bring plenty of firewood. We stayed 3 nights and got a site with view of the water. Absolutely loved it there!

This is one of our favorite campsites. We try and come out at least once a year and camp there. This past year we got the best spot there.

What an awesome spot. We found some agate, we think... Met some nice people and dogs. Also, saw a seal playing in the waves. The current is very strong and there are signs that warn against going in the water. Stay safe and enjoy!

Big Lagoon County Park is one of many beautiful beaches along this coast. What makes this beach nice is that a person can drive right next to it and park. There is a fee, but here is no long walk; you can walk right onto the sand. And parts of it have sand like very small beads. We watch sunsets here 2 nights.

The Big Lagoon County Park is a gorgeous state park in the middle of Trinidad, Humboldt county. The park is really well maintained. There is a $5 dollar fee that should be paid to enter in the park. There are plenty of parking available and clean restrooms. The beach is really beautiful, but be aware the the sea there is too strong and dangerous for swimming. On the other hand, the lagoon is very calm and full of fishes. It is great place for fishing or doing water activities. In addition to that, the whole beach and lagoon is surrounded by a scenic forest. I highly recommend this place for everyone that loves outdoor and nature.
