Francis State Beach, part of the Half Moon Bay State Beach, is a great destination for friends and families of all ages. The sandy beach and the walking path, stretching out for miles, are fantastic. This setting is indeed perfect for those looking to picnic in a friendly atmosphere, swim in the Pacific Ocean, fish or simply sunbathe.

If you wish to stay longer in the area, the state park's campground provides accommodations for tent camping, trailers, or other recreational vehicles.
