A short trail drops from the car park to a pebbly beach scattered with giant logs and rocky islands offshore. Walk south at low tide to explore tide pools. It is one of the easiest places to see the raw Washington coast from a car.

Good to know

  • Check the tide table and go at low tide for pools
  • Keep off the logs, a big wave can roll them
