Palm Beach, Public beach in Santa Cruz County, United States.
Palm State Beach extends across three miles of sandy shoreline bordered by agricultural fields and pine trees along the California coast.
The beach area was formerly known as Camp Goodall, featuring small cottages before being renamed after a Florida resort destination.
The Indigenous Calendaruc tribes originally stewarded these coastal lands, maintaining a deep connection with the region through generations.
The beach operates daily from 8:00 AM until sunset, offering facilities including picnic tables, barbecues, restrooms, and outdoor showers for visitors.
Located near the Pajaro River mouth, the beach connects with farmlands through West Beach Street, creating a distinct agricultural-coastal environment.
