New Release: YourCoast App

The California Coastal Commission has just released the YourCoast App for iPhones, which offers a free guide to 1,563 coastal access points along California Coastline.

How does it work? The app will help users discover and get directions to hidden pocket beaches, nature trails overlooking the ocean, scenic campgrounds and waters to kayak, surf or paddleboard. It also provides filters that help users figure out if their new coastal destination has restrooms, parking, disabled access, is dog friendly and other amenities. Users can also share their adventures with others via social media, and the app enables them to look at recently viewed photos, maps and other information, even when in remote areas without cell coverage.

Who made it? The YourCoast mobile phone application was developed in an unique effort by tech entrepreneur Sean Parker and the California Coastal Commission.

Don't have an iPhone? For those without an Apple device, some of the same information is available on the Coastal Commission’s website at www.yourcoast.org . Staff is currently researching the possibility of expanding the app for Android users.
