Hiking
An experience! Be there about half an hour before low tide. Without low tide, the whole thing is pointless!

Hiking
This trail offers a wide, easy path, providing breathtaking coastal views. As you walk, you'll come across tidepools — small pockets of seawater that remain after the tide recedes. These tidepools serve as temporary homes for diverse plants and animals.
This area has gained popularity for whale watching, so remember to keep an eye out for such sightings.
