Down a well-maintained dirt road south of American River, this remote beach is just the spot for a little soul-searching, a breezy paddle in the brine or just a chestful of fresh ocean air. It's a short scramble through the dunes from the end of Old Salt Lake Rd. Chances are, the only footprints on the sand will be yours.
