Beach Restrooms
Scenic and Santa Lucia Restroom Replacement Project
Carmel Beach is owned and maintained by the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea and includes over 22 acres of white sand beach. The beach is used year round and represents a significant recreational resource. The City’s General Plan recognizes the need to provide adequate facilities at the beach that will serve the needs of the public, mitigate damage to the environment and respect the character of the surrounding neighborhoods. The General Plan also establishes a goal of replacing the existing temporary restrooms located near Scenic Road and Santa Lucia Avenue with a permanent restroom facility.
The City has prepared preliminary concept plans for a new restroom facility at this location. The City is requesting public input to help refine the design of this facility to ensure that the project is well received by all users of the beach and the residents of the area. For this purpose, the City will be hosting a public workshop on Thursday, November 17th at Carmel City Hall starting at 6:00 p.m. (see attached notice). For more information about this workshop and/or the project in general, please contact Sean Conroy, Planning & Building Services Manager at 831-620-2010 or by email at sconroy@ci.carmel.ca.us.
