Jade Cove

Jade Cove is located in the Big Sur region on the California coast.[1] A steep trail leads down to a beach where nephrite jade can be found.[2] The cove lies two miles south of Sand Dollar Beach, and just over three miles north of Gorda, California.[3] It is a day use site that is also a designated Hang Glider landing site.
