About
La Jolla Group Camp provides group camping within Point Mugu State Park, located along the far western edge of the Santa Monica Mountains where rugged terrain meets the Pacific Ocean. This walk-in, tent-only site accommodates groups of 9 to 50 people and is ideal for organized outings, scout troops, or large family gatherings seeking coastal camping without RV facilities. The park encompasses five miles of ocean shoreline with rocky bluffs, sandy beaches, and sand dunes, plus two major river canyons and wide grassy valleys. Over 70 miles of hiking trails wind through the backcountry, though dogs are prohibited on trails. Campers check in and collect vehicle tags at Thornhill Broome Campground before proceeding to the group site. Reservations are made through ReserveCalifornia up to six months in advance. The campground operates year-round, though fire restrictions may apply seasonally. Token-operated showers are available in the campground area and accept only one-dollar bills.
