As I say, one needs to go through considerable trouble to excersize their "rights".
I used to live down there and am somewhat familiar with how it works. If you look at your picture of Broad Beach, there's not any easy access between those houses. There is public access though. The top pic shows that access at Broad Beach. The second shows where it ends at high tide, which is important because public access in those areas is 25' above high tide. And the third shows how absurd that is in some areas. As you point out there are huge open areas all along the coast, Zuma to Dockweiler which have both ample parking and plenty of open beach.

I’m very familiar with the area, too, having been at Zuma for triathlon training just two days ago. One can enter the Broad Beach area simply by walking along the beach. From the last, westernmost parking lot at Zuma to where Broad Beach begins is no more than a couple hundred yards of sand.

I guess 31430 has the fence along his property line.

Do Redford and the rest pay property taxes all the way down to the water line?

The house owners in that pic are lucky to never have the risk of bad storms.

Here's a good picture of the boundary between Broad Beach and Zuma. Where the houses start is Broad Beach. The bottom half of the pic is Zuma
