BEWARE HUMAN TRAFFICKING HOT SPOT. The beach itself is gorgeous but for some reason this beach is a hot spot for traffickers. Twice now I’ve been approached and followed by people I would identify as groomers. What seems to be fake “for sale” cars parked in the lot to deter suspicion of loitering. And weird men hiding around the brush on the trail who follow close and stare. One man fully dressed not in any beach attire, gold watch and dark sweats just standing and watching women while smoking a cigar. He stood right next to my towel just openly staring at me. He moved further away when I got on the phone with my dad. But he never stopped staring. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS IS NOT ABOUT RACE. This is 100% based off of gut instinct and demeanor/body language. I post these photos so that if this man is seen doing the same thing or something happens to someone, there’s a photo that can hopefully link to that person’s whereabouts. I’m nearly 100% sure that he was scouting for human trafficking . He Looked like he was out of place yet there for a specific purpose. I did not like his body language at all. He stood way too close to my towel and would not break his stare despite my visible discomfort. I decided to leave and he got on the phone as soon as I stood up. I’m almost certain they have 1 guy down below hunting and he just phones his partner who’s waiting and watching for women coming up that trail. It looks like there’s only 1 way in and 1 way out. Lots of hiding spots. I’ve been harassed twice now which is every time I’ve been here.. when I finally got up to my car a different dude who looked younger knocked on my window and asked me if I wanted to “hangout” when I wouldn’t roll down my window he continued to stand there and wait. I’m 100% there is human trafficking rings operating out here at blacks beach. Check your car for tags, any weird markings and watch your surroundings. I will never come back alone. The man pictured did NOT have the body language of someone who was just awkward at socializing, he was looking for a target and using his demeanor to cause discomfort in other women who eventually he would then come to approach. This is a predator tactic used to reverse the awkward feeling back onto you and make you as the woman try to “diffuse” the feeling by playing nice or interacting out of self consciousness . Do not fall for that. This man was smug from the way he was standing there with his cigar to the way he was aggressively staring in hopes that you would react in a way that he could use as an invitation to come over and interact. He had this weird stalling behavior and an underhanded half wave like he was trying to get your attention without drawing attention to himself or make it look as though you invited him over. I just openly started snapping photos to see if he would leave. He still did not. Never tell anyone you are alone. And be wary of anyone who still try’s to approach you despite having headphones in and reading a book. This man is working he is NOT...

Unleash yourself in this secular world.

Remember when you were a kid with no clothes, no tag, no title, no social status on.

You are allowed to be naked here, to be free!

One of the best days with friends who really helped me finish this dream, and taking care of me like a little princess.

Black’s Beach, or naked beach located in La Jolla, San Diego, is renowned for its expansive two-mile stretch of pristine sand, dramatic cliffs, and some of Southern California’s most challenging surf conditions. 

Access and Terrain

Reaching Black’s Beach requires navigating steep trails descending from the cliffs above, which can be strenuous for some visitors. The effort, however, is rewarded with a secluded and tranquil environment, far removed from the typical beach crowds. 

Beach Experience

The beach is notably spacious, allowing visitors to find ample personal space even during peak times. It’s important to note that Black’s Beach is clothing-optional, with a significant portion of visitors choosing to sunbathe nude. This aspect contributes to the beach’s unique, liberating atmosphere. 

Surfing and Swimming

Black’s Beach is favored by experienced surfers due to its powerful swells and strong currents. However, these conditions can be hazardous for inexperienced swimmers. Caution is advised, and it’s recommended to stay informed about current water conditions. 

Wildlife and Scenery

The clear waters of Black’s Beach offer glimpses of diverse marine life, including various fish species and occasionally stingrays. The surrounding cliffs and natural landscape enhance the beach’s scenic beauty, making it a favored spot for nature enthusiasts and photographers. 

Considerations

Due to its secluded location and the effort required to access it, Black’s Beach lacks amenities such as food vendors and restrooms. Visitors should come prepared with necessary supplies and be mindful of the natural environment to preserve its pristine condition. 

In summary, Black’s Beach offers a unique and serene coastal experience for those seeking a more adventurous and liberating beach outing. Its combination of natural beauty, challenging surf, and open atmosphere makes it a standout destination...

Blacks Beach in San Diego is an absolute gem and one of the most unique and breathtaking spots I’ve ever visited. Nestled beneath the towering cliffs of Torrey Pines, this beach offers a sense of serenity and natural beauty that’s hard to find elsewhere. The panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean are simply stunning, and the golden sand stretches for miles, providing plenty of space to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Whether you’re here for a quiet escape or an adventure, this beach has something for everyone.

The journey to Blacks Beach is part of the experience. While the hike down the steep trails can be challenging, it’s well worth the effort once you reach the bottom. The dramatic cliffs and the untouched beauty of the coastline make you feel like you’ve discovered a hidden paradise. For those who enjoy outdoor activities, the waves here are perfect for surfing, and the atmosphere is peaceful and laid-back.

One of the things that makes Blacks Beach so special is its inclusive and welcoming vibe. As a clothing-optional beach, it attracts a diverse crowd of locals and visitors alike, all enjoying the sun and surf in their own way. Everyone seems to respect the space and the people around them, creating a unique sense of community. It’s a place where you can truly feel free and connected to nature.

The wildlife is another highlight of Blacks Beach. Keep an eye out for dolphins playing in the surf or seabirds gliding gracefully overhead. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a whale in the distance during migration season. The pristine environment is a reminder of how beautiful and precious our natural world is, making it an ideal spot for anyone who loves the outdoors.

Blacks Beach is truly a one-of-a-kind destination that I can’t recommend enough. Whether you’re here to surf, sunbathe, or simply take in the incredible views, it’s a place that leaves a lasting impression. Just be prepared for the hike and make sure to bring everything you need, as there are no facilities on the beach. Once you’re there, though, you’ll understand why so many people consider Blacks Beach to be one of the best spots in San Diego. A must-visit for any nature lover or...
