Guide
Good to know
Bring binoculars for bird watching
Tufted puffins and other seabirds are common, and staff loan binoculars to visitors exploring Haystack Rock.
Visit at low tide
Tide pools and seaweed gardens are exposed, revealing starfish, anemones, and other marine life that staff help protect.
Arrive before 10am in summer
The large lot fills quickly on warm weekends, making early arrival essential for guaranteed parking.
Pack water to extinguish fires
Many visitors incorrectly use sand to put out beach bonfires, which does not work, water is the only effective method.
Expect cold Pacific water year-round
Even in summer the ocean feels cold, so bring a wetsuit if you plan to wade or swim.
