## Quick answer

Night shooting is possible, but the City closes the park nightly from midnight to 4 a.m.

## Detailed answer

During closed hours you may still cross the park to reach the ocean, but do not stay in the park. The beach faces east, so moonrise over the ocean and the blue light before sunrise are the usual night subjects. Bring a tripod and a headlamp, and keep back from the water's edge in the dark.
