    Tips

    Hiking

    In theory the trail continues past this point to the actual Emerald Cove, but I strongly recommend stopping here instead. Emerald Cove is muddy and gloomy; Bight Cove, on the other hand, is beautiful. You can enjoy the broad shale beach, driftwood to sit on, and puzzled looks from sea kayakers who are surprised to find out you walked here instead of paddling. There's even a small lagoon.
