Don't know what you consider nearby since Palm Springs is in the desert. The closest beaches would be Oceanside in San Diego County or Newport Beach in Orange County. Both of them are around 100 miles and a 2 hour drive without traffic.
Feb is definitely not beach weather in So. Cal and while it could be a nice day to just walk along the beach, it could also be cold and rainy. If you want warmer weather where you can lay out then just stay in Palm Springs and enjoy the pool.

It depends on your definition of "nearby". PS is in the inland desert. Newport is about 115 miles and San Diego is about 140 miles. Other beaches between Santa Monica and San Diego will be somewhere in the same range.

RB-Don't think I would send anyone to Lake Perris if they were looking for a beach just technically you're right!!
GoTravel-I thought the same thing. Figured the poster was joking. Interesting that this is jdr's only post.
