    Went on the 2.5 mile coastal loop and spent an hour on this lovely secluded beach. The fern grotto was amazing!

    Nicely hidden cute beach. Worth checking out as you are hiking on Wilder to Ohlone. Can see seals from there on a good day. It’s secluded and quiet.

    The beach is beautiful and only a couple mile walk.

    Very cool hidden jem. If you're already at Wilder Ranch, take the time to walk down to this grotto. We'll worth the minimal effort.

This can be extended northward to Fern Grotto Beach (a 1.5-mile ride from the parking lot). A small cave here has ferns hanging from its ceiling, fed by a freshwater seep, a magic find.
