Blown away
Hunting Island State Park is like stepping back into the Jurassic period, except there's a lighthouse, lol. The foliage is crazy cool ! If a dinosaur stepped out from the side of the trail it wouldn't be out of place...shocking, but not out of place.
Last spring (2017)some major storms caused some havoc and the park just reopened recently. The area by the lighthouse closed when we were there due to erosion making the pavement collapse/crumble. The campground (part of it) is reopened but the mess is still there. The staff is working to clear and clean the park up.
There is a dock with some premium fishing and trail adjacent that takes you to the beach of skeleton trees.
