Just South of Aliso Beach, you can park near Pacific Coast Hwy and Eagle Rock Way, and walk down a long public staircase to the Table Rock beach. Table rock is a quiet, small cove with a rocky shore with little to no water related activities.There are tide-pools located in Table Rock, but it is off limits to the public because it is a Marine Protected Area. Table Rock Beach is just North of Secret Cove which may be accessible by swimming. There is a lifeguard on watch but a public restroom is not available.

Reminders: There is a 3-day rain advisory after each rain storm, use caution as bacteria levels can increase during this period. The County Environmental Health staff advises swimmers that levels of bacteria can rise significantly in ocean and bay waters adjacent to storm drains, creeks and rivers. Swimmers should avoid coastal waters impacted by discharging storm drains creeks and rivers, and beach users should avoid contact with any runoff on the beach during dry or wet weather conditions. As an extra precaution remain 500 ft away on either side from any outfalls.
