🌊 Half Moon Bay Seaside Adventure: Stroller-Friendly Family Day Trip in the Bay Area!
Hello, everyone! Today, I want to share with you the Coastal Trail in Half Moon Bay, California. Take your kids and let's explore this beautiful place together! 🚗
🅿️ Location: 1001 Miramontes Point Rd, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019
Firstly, let's talk about the parking lot. It's relatively small and requires some luck to find a spot, but don't worry, the breathtaking views make it all worth it. My family was lucky enough to find a parking space and began this exciting journey along the coast. 😄
🌊 Coastal Trail: A picturesque trail along the Bay Area shoreline
This Coastal Trail is perfect for a family outing with kids as it is stroller-friendly. Along the way, we enjoyed the magnificent waves and soaring seagulls. The left side offered a view of the azure ocean while the right side showcased charming houses. It was truly a feast for the eyes. As we walked further, we arrived at the iconic spot in Half Moon Bay, overlooking the majestic Pacific Ocean, with lush green grassland and The Ritz-Carlton to the right. 😄
🍽️ Delicious Lunch: Barbara's Fishtrap
Our stomachs started growling, so we headed to Barbara's Fishtrap located at 281 Capistrano Rd, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019. The fried shrimp and calamari were incredibly delicious, especially their clam chowder, which was simply irresistible. We specifically chose outdoor seating to enjoy the view of the sea while indulging in our meal. Although we couldn't secure a reservation at The Ocean Terrace, our dining experience at Barbara's Fishtrap left us more than satisfied. 😄
🛍️ Seafood Harvest: The Pier
After our meal, we went to the nearby pier, where we found freshly caught fish, crabs, sea urchins, and more. We bought some incredibly fresh fish to steam and enjoy at home during the evening. Just imagine the enticing aroma of the seafood dishes. It's truly something to look forward to. 😄
The whole journey started at around 8 am and lasted until around 1 pm. When we got back home, the kids took a 3-hour nap. It was a fulfilling and joyful day!
