Point Vicente Beach 3

This top photo was originally posted here.  Local storytellers contend that the Point Vicente Light Tower is home to a lady ghost who lost her lover at sea.

The view from the nearby cliffs is superb.

The beach is located at the southwestern tip of the Palos Verdes peninsula, near where Hawthorne Blvd. intersects Palos Verdes Drive.

    Your photos of the coast line are spectacular, Ebie. I love the views along the Pacific Coast Highway when my husband and I were there. Around each bend in the road was a breathtaking view.

    The first three shots are very pretty far views, but that last shot is remarkable. You’ve caught the wave just before it swallows the rocks.

    Wonderful shots…

    You could imagine the ghost of the lady, standing at the top of that light tower, looking out to sea, in vain, for her beloved…

    It is hard to choose between the actual beach and cliffs… I would probably chose the cliffs unless the beach was secluded and included beautiful dunes and sea grasses. This is raw and lovely.

    Beautiful shots and a beautiful area. I’ve never been there either. This makes me want to take a drive to see this for myself. :-)
