A pair of TikTok videos showing homeowners blocking off beaches in Malibu and Laguna Beach have ignited a debate over public beach access rights in California.
The California Coastal Commission is investigating the incidents to determine if they violate the Coastal Act, which grants residents fundamental rights to the state's beaches.
The law specifies that the public has the right to areas seaward of the mean high tide line, raising questions about the legitimacy of homeowners restricting access to the beach.
