The billionaire Vinod Khosla, the co-founder of Sun Microsystems, purchased the land containing the only public access road to Martins Beach near Half Moon Bay and then closed the road. He claims the beach all the way to submerged tidelands is private property and has hired lobbyists to defeat a state bill to give the public access again. "For this guy to buy Martins Beach and deny the public access is an outrage," said former state Rep. Pete McCloskey, who enjoyed the beach growing up. "The coastal plan calls for this to be public."
