Perfect place to soak some sun, away from crowds. If you like to explore tide pools it's the perfect place to look at little crabs, anemones, mussels, etc

Pretty trail along the beach. Has a waterfall and there is a small cave area you can go into if the water isn't that high along the shore.

This is a nice trail system that is relatively easy to access and to walk and you will always see something different. This time (April) we saw a 3 foot rattlesnake 🐍 while hiking 🚶‍♂️, it was just off the wooden walkway trail. There is beach access also, and several benches on the way down to it. We like this place, you pay through the app which is very convenient. All in all you need to explore this . The views are really worth it, and it's really never been that crowded ( we go during the week tho') #BrokerDon

This place is absolutely stunning!! When we went we planned on going on the 8 mile hike through both of the 2 campsites, but unfortunately it was closed due to the rain. So just make sure you check the bottom of the home page to see the status. We ended up going on the brush walk, which was open since it was paved. It was right up next to the water with plenty of benches, and routes right to the water. We had a great time!

All depends on where you park and if you caring cooler, etc.... 2,3 mins or 5-10mins if you actually park in the parking lot right at cliff to beach.

No, not sure where to look up information but I see people walking dogs around the area but not in the park itself.

It's as long and as short as you want.. A few miles total down to the beach and around. Absolutely beautiful!

I wonder how long can the walking distance get love long walks? Anybody

Seems like there are multiple walking paths and parking areas. Any specific recommendations for a 2 - 3 hour walk in the afternoon?

David Crabill | Aug 19, 2020

I recommend to go to the northernmost lot and hike down to the beach, and then to walk a couple miles along the beach until you see and enticing trail, and then hike up and back to wherever you parked. Should take about 2 hours depending if you stop to tidepool.
