Guide
Good to know
Excellent for rock and agate hunting
The rocky beach yields agates, jasper, chalcedony, and jade year-round, especially after winter storms.
Go at low tide
Low tide reveals tide pools, sea caves, rock formations, and significantly more beach to explore.
Plan to arrive very early
Roadside parking is extremely limited and fills quickly, especially on weekends and during summer.
Prepare for steep wooden stairs
The descent involves multiple flights of steep steps with some benches to rest; the return trip is significantly harder.
Watch for sneaker waves
Never turn your back on the ocean; waves can arrive unexpectedly and wash over the beach.
