California's State Parks system contains close to 300 parks with beaches, forests, mountains and deserts included in the inventory, as well as over one million artifacts in a collection of items. To say that state parks operations are huge would be an understatement at best. The system divides parks into regions and types of park attractions--off road vehicles, beaches, parks, camping, etc.

Not to be confused with the County of Orange Parks run by OC Parks, the California State Parks operates the beaches and parks listed below, and several are the busiest, most profitable in the inventory of some 270+ parks. Bolsa Chica State Beach is one of them. Millions of people attend this beach annually.

Bolsa Chica (State Beach) Orange County
Corona del Mar (State Beach) Orange County
Crystal Cove (State Park) Orange County
Doheny (State Beach) Orange County
