CAMPING

One of our favorite activities, here we’ve put together a resource to help readers get a feel for camping opportunities, both in the SoCal area and beyond.

The criteria we use when judging a campground is fairly straightforward:

• Beauty:  The whole point of going is to be surrounded by natural beauty.
• Isolation:  Are you pitching a tent next to an RV?  Do you have to hike in half a mile?
• Amenities:  No showers is fine, but you’ll want to know that before you go.

SoCal:

• Leo Carrillo State Park

• Buckhorn Campground

• El Capitan State Beach

• Jalama Beach County Park

• Malibu Creek
