The San Gregorio Ranch, celebrated for its nude beach and scenic views along the San Mateo coastline since 1966, is being acquired by the Peninsula Open Space Trust for $10 million. This 195-acre land boasts pastures and a beach, with the goal of preserving local wildlife while maintaining public access. The trust aims to work with state parks to integrate it with the nearby San Gregorio State Beach. Until the deal is finalized in 2026, the current owners will maintain access fees and allow nude bathing, though future policies remain uncertain.
The Peninsula Open Space Trust plans to purchase San Gregorio Ranch to preserve its wildlife and continue public access, adding to the adjacent state beach.
Current owners will continue charging a parking fee and allowing nude sunbathing until POST takes ownership, potentially altering the area's nature.
