Cressant city cal. Has a local park del Norte coast red woods state park. Not on the beach but really close, 15 dollars a night.
I would keep a close eye out for sand fleas. They can ruin a beach camp.
Honestly, there's beaches up and down the Pacific Coast Highway, most times there's signs at the entrance that let you know.
There are a few campgrounds that offer beach camping including Gold Bluffs Beach Campground in Orick, CA; but I would definitely check out the Redwoods National Park website for all the different camping options in or around the Redwoods
