About

La Playa is a public beach in California, set within La Playa Beach and about half a mile from the community of La Playa. There is no fee to visit. The weather here stays mild year-round, based on typical averages from the North Island NAS weather station a couple of miles away. Late summer and early fall are the warmest stretch, with highs around 77°F in August and September and lows in the mid-60s. June and July run a little cooler, with highs in the low to mid-70s. Winter months from December through February bring highs near 66°F and lows around 48 to 50°F. Those months are also the wettest, averaging about seven days with precipitation each. From May through September, rain is rare, with only one or two wet days a month, and snow is not part of the picture at any time of year. La Playa Trail starts just steps from the sand, about a tenth of a mile away. A bit farther out, Oceanside Trail and Bayside Trail are both a little over three miles off, and Monastery Trail sits about three and a half miles away.
