This small lagoon is fed by the San Luis Creek which drains into Avila Beach. The lagoon is easily accessible from the beach, and is located a short distance from the main beach area (just under the Avila Drive overpass). The lagoon area is pet friendly, although water quality in the lagoon can be unhealthy during certain times throughout the year, particularly after large storms or the first large storm of the season. Swimming in the lagoon is not advisable
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
