Itinerary description
I enjoyed this hike. I ran over half of it so if you’re just hiking, allow another hour or so to complete it. I didn’t have time, but you should definitely make your way to the beach too, you’ll see signs on the walk to the start of the loop. I chose to go right on the start of the Bluff trail and liked hiking up on the coastal side and I feel like going down that half of the trail would be more challenging than going down the inland half. That being said, I think the view is better while walking if you go left at the start of the Bluff trail and ultimately have the ocean on your left as you walk the sea side half. I ended up turning around a ton during my hike to see the view of the more northern part of the coastal view. Either way, it’s a nice hike! The inland part is a bit boring so don’t be dissuaded by the wide trail, the sea side is a nice single track. Advice: bring sunscreen, there’s very little shade.
