Cardiff is a good place but be careful of the launch conditions. The surf is almost always larger there than at the shores and things can change dramatically based on the tidal conditions. I have embarrassed myself on both launches and landings a number of times at Cardiff.

Parking can be challenging at this location. You can pay to park in the State lot or park for free along the highway. Finding a parking place after about 9:00 on a nice day can be a real problem. Weekends are worse.
