information
The park has 1.5 miles of
beach for swimming, surfing, windsurfing, surf fishing and beachcombing. The
beach also has tide pools, coastal caves and reefs for exploring. Giant
sycamores shade the main campgrounds. The park also features back-country
hiking. The park was named after Leo Carrillo (1880-1961), actor, preservationist and conservationist, served on the California Beach and Parks commission for eighteen years, and was instrumental in the state's acquisition of the Hearst property at San Simeon. He was related by blood and marriage to a long line of distinguished original Californians. Leo's greatest fame came from his portrayal of Pancho, the sidekick to Duncan Renaldo's Cisco Kid, an early 1950's TV series.
