Martins Beach is a hidden gem along the San Mateo County coast, accessible only by a private road that requires permission or a small fee. This seclusion ensures a quiet, uncrowded experience, with visitors rewarded by a rugged shoreline of dark sand, rocky outcrops, and crashing waves. The beach is ideal for those seeking solitude, photography, or a connection with nature. Tide pools reveal starfish and anemones at low tide, while the surrounding cliffs add dramatic scenery.
