If you look on Google Map, you will see icons for several beaches just south of Main Beach. The truth is there is an uninterrupted stretch of sand starting from the south end of Main Beach going until a rocky shore interrupts at Brooks Street. Each of those small beaches (Sleepy Hollow, Cleo Street, St. Ann’s, Thalia Street, Anita Street, Oak Street, and Brooks Street) are named by the street entrance that crosses PCH and marked on the beach by their lifeguard tower. The experience you get with each of the spots along this stretch does change a little due to the geography of the ocean floor. Some have wider beaches making them better for sun bathing (Sleepy Hollow) and some are better for surfing and skimming (Thalia). But all have amazing views and are walking distance many of the coffee shops, stores, restaurants, and art galleries in Laguna Beach.
