1. Walk straight down Madrone ave to East Cliff Drive. About 100 yards to your left or right is a stairway down to the water, with beaches at the foot of the cliffs.
2. Walk straight down Madrone ave to East Cliff Drive. when you get to East Cliff drive turn right. Proceed west on East Cliff till you pass Palisades Ave. When E Cliff bears to the right, go straight and follow the bike path to Moran Lake. From there you can cross the street and have about two miles of uninterrupted beach!
