Loved this place. When you enter, the personnel will ask you to keep your voices down as it is a place of meditation. It was a busy Saturday when we went. You can tell the garden is well kept, and it is right beside the ocean so the sounds of the waves while in a beautiful garden was just amazing. I'd love to come back here on a not busy day.

Such a beautiful and quiet place! Free entry (donations welcome), well maintained paths, lots of benches for relaxing. Great view of the ocean (unfortunately the beach stairs are on private property and there's a gate).

My friends and I visited this garden for the first time, and we absolutely fell in love with it. The tranquility and relaxation you feel here, accompanied by the sounds of waves and little waterfalls, are just unmatched. It’s currently the blooming season, and the garden is a feast for the eyes with all the flowers in full bloom. We went on a Saturday afternoon, and, as expected, it was crowded, with nearly every seat taken. Yet, the atmosphere remained peaceful - there’s an spoken rule here to keep noise to a minimum. If you’re seeking a serene escape that delights the senses, this garden is a must-visit.

What a beautiful place! There is lots of free street parking. Once you come in, you are greeting, and they explain some rules to you. As you walk you will see see beautiful plants and lots of benches. This is a great place to think, meditate, or just take in the beautiful views. Those ocean views are breathing taking. It is a beautiful place to get some peace. Would highly recommend

Beautiful. Very serene. Views are amazing. Not wheelchair friendly. There are stairsand if you can lift your chair with a friend or by yourself is quirky the visit!
