Kirby Cove Campground — Golden Gate National Recreation Area

Fantastic secluded camping

Great time camping here in early November 2022. Stayed in spot 4, its furthest back into the canyon and I think it helped cut down on the wind. The walk to the beach was 60 seconds and the ocean can be seen from the site. Cool ww2 structures. You get a code to open the gate uptop and drive down to park for your stay.

Strange semi loud sounds during the night reminded me of the show Lost. Wind and rain hard in the night but the morning brought beautiful skys.

I would camp here again in a heartbeat.

Spots are separated substantially from each other.

Spot 4 looked like it had pads for 4 tents.

Spot 1 looked like they could see the bridge from it, but directly on the wind path.
