My top five beaches of California are:

BeachReason
Newport Beach, O.C.* clean beach + water, also not overcrowded
* stores and places to eat just around the corner
* Newport Pier beach walk
* nice big waves
* shallow -> you can walk into the ocean, it does not getting deep that quickly
Balboa Beach, O.C.* clean beach + water, also not overcrowded
* nice big waves directly at the shore
* Balboa Pier, some stores and also places to eat just around the corner
* place of lots of (body)surfers
* steep -> beware of rip currents!
Manhattan Beach, L.A.* clean, wide, sandy beaches
* less crowded than Santa Monica public parks with picnic tables, restrooms and so on sports activities such as beach volleyball, swimming, body boarding and surfing
Mission Beach, S.D* really big beach with lot of space beach walk
* Balboa Park and other stores/restaurants right there
* shallow -> you can walk into the ocean, it does not getting deep that quickly
Moonstone Beach, Cambria* dark (almost) black sand small beach between coastline
* Without wetsuit it is definitely too cold to take a full-body-bath up here :D, but just to relax it is definitely suited whale watching beautiful sunsets
