Victoria Beach & Pirate Tower
Victoria Beach
A small cove hidden below a residential area, where a stone round tower on the beach looks like a fairytale castle, making it Laguna's most photogenic spot.
A stone staircase tower built in 1926 for a private house on the cliff. Because it looks like a castle, it is nicknamed the 'Pirate Tower', but the tower itself is not open to the public. Take the public stairs off Victoria Drive down to the beach, then walk south to the foot of the tower. You must go at low tide, because at high tide the waves crash directly against the base of the cliff. It is a free public beach with no facilities and no lifeguards. The surroundings are residential, with only a few roadside parking spaces, so please do not enter private property.
Opening hours
All day (low tide recommended)
