In Mendocino County, California.

There are two trails: the northern and southern. The northern trail is more popular and requires permits, which are hard to get and can take up to a year in advance to acquire. You also have to check the tide charts in advance, as the northern trail is treacherous during high tides.

Information on permitting:

The southern trail snakes along the cliffs rather than the beach itself, so you can hike without fear during high tides. You also can visit without reservation. It costs $5/night, which you can pay for at the trailhead.[1]
