It would be so easy to drive right past the turnoff for this park on your way down the coast. I'm glad we didn't make that mistake! The coastline scenery is exceptional, and the park offers a nice variety of activities: beachcombing, short or long hikes, scenic overlooks, paved loops for kids to bike around, and so on. We were lucky enough to see a pod of whales frolicking within easy eyesight of shore, even though it wasn't the whale migration season.

The campsites are tucked into little pockets scattered around the park, which gives it a really nice uncrowded feeling, much better than being shoulder-to-shoulder with every other camper in the place. Highly recommend this park for either a day trip or overnight.
