Seaside Wilderness Park

Brooke Stephens

Entering through Emma Wood SB, I followed the bike path in and went down under a bridge where it was kind of swampy and continued on a dirt path out onto the beach. I was able to get my bike and kid trailer all the way to the site of the beach. I locked them together when we went to the water since there are many thieves in the area and it's not 100% safe area. It was overcast but not too cold. The weather is deceitful on the coast. It was a beautiful day. We got there at low tide. The tide pools we covered in seaweed and didn't appear to have any animals or sea life in them. We did watch a crane and the seagulls for awhile and played in the waves as the tide came back in. We saw a helicopter fly over. There are always neat planes and such flying by rather low so you can get a good look. My 5yo. loves it. It is a special place to explore and very enjoyable.

The place was quiet and if you don't mind the $10 parking fee you may just have the beach to yourself. The trail south along the shore follows the dunes and it's sandwiched between coastal rocks and inland brush. I attempted the Emma Wood River Trail and got lost in a maze of muddy trails, thick brush, dead ends, and trash. I'm a big fellow and it left me feeling uneasy.

Nice little quiet beach next to the rail road tracks. Pretty local little spot.

Beautiful beach with island views and a nice, wide stretch of sand (if you go at low tide 😉). No easy access to bathrooms, and you have to walk a bit to get there, but it's totally worth it because it's not usually too crowded, even in the summer.
