Hard to get to and very small parking lot but beautiful and not crowded since you can't get there easily or park. View of crane beach. Took the paddle board out. Water is still cold in mid july

Very nice place to visit. The last mile or so to Sandy Point is a gravel road, wouldn't go there on a motor cycle. Very good place to take photos of birds or to just take a walk on the beach.

The most peaceful beach ⛱ in the area. They allow minimal parking and you can walk forever. You need to arrive early in the day to get there.

The lots for Sandy Point are very small. If it's a nice day you'll want to get there by 8 am the latest. When you first drive in the lots to the left are closed. To get to Sandy Point you have to drive allllll the way down.

Not bad at all...and they love me! Don't let them keep you away these days as it's been beautiful there, as usual. Enjoy!!

It's free at Sandy Point for parking. You have to pay if you park at the refuge.

How much does parking cost?

It was only $5.00 and you want to go all the way to the end because it is beautiful and not crowded at all. That being said they only allow so many vehicles, so get there early or you might have to wait for others to leave.
