Then get ready for the Friday opening of the beachside Moro Campground at Crystal Cove State Park, near Laguna Beach's northern border, just south of Coast Highway. The campground features 60 overnight campsites and 200 day-use parking spaces, perfect for hikers wanting to access Crystal Cove's rough interior.

Yep, this is indeed the same campground built on the site of the now-bulldozed El Morro Village trailer park, the residents of which for decades had vigorously protested the campground's development.

Hey, at least the land wasn't turned into another McMegaresort for the uber-rich. Can you believe it once was proposed that it become a low-income housing, in which the region still sorely needs. I am just not sure the ocean front property should be it. Personally.

If you want to check the new 'ground out before everybody else, a public open house will be happening Thursday from 10 a.m. till 6 p.m. Officials expect the campground's reservation list to fill up fast (make yours at Reserve America's site right here), to the point of it being sold out year-round once word gets out.

oh man, I remember surfing that beach in the 80's, hiding from the sun under the stilted mod homes. A perfect left breaks off of the cliff under the right swell conditions. Good times, it will be a great little camping site.

 

Great post!

What a great place for camping and walking the beach.  It's nice that it's going to be reasonable and not an expensive afternoon.

Well, Lauren, perfect timing on this opening July 4th weekend...and they did on time--that doesn't happen often with projects like this, now does it??

It was cool to read the history of this place through Jack's eyes....
