Nice walk, but beware the ticks. Takes you over up to the cliff tops where you get some great views, and down to a nice beach with lots of surfers. Take water, can be quite steep at some points!

This is a fine park for hikers. It has a very small limited parking lot and trails that lead to bliuffs above the beaches. The views are wonderful! That said, there are so many other like views without the walk. Of course if there to walk, then this place is four stars.

Ok hike, with nice view. Just nothing that I would call excellent. Saw a few deer, saw a few ticks. Do not go out of your way, but you could pick a worse liking spot.

beautiful trail and the hoo doos are amazing, especially after Hurricane Irene. (Please do not walk on them! They are fragile!). Great for history buffs as well since this area has a strong connection to military activity. Strongly recommend bug spray...

We thought we could park and get to the beach for a little bit. After walking in the brush 15 minutes we came to a lovely bluff that overlooked the ocean. No beach really available here without a climb (not recommended for age and ecological reasons). Birds and bunnies thrive here.

What a great mini-hike. Easy walk to the bluffs, with some of the most breathtaking views in the world. I love this place - great family hike.

Great short hikes on nice trails 100s of feet above the Atlantic Ocean. The ocean breezes were delightful even on the hottest of days. Trail was easy and maintained and the riveting view of the bluffs and ocean is worth the stop - no admission fee!!!

Great walking/Hiking trails with beautiful views overlooking the ocean. You can check the conditions for surfing and swimming. The trails will take all the way to Ditch Plains.

This is a new State Park and is just lovely. The views from the top of the cliffs is wonderful and the park has been laid out very well for parking and getting to the trail areas. Be careful of ticks! Don't go into the dune grass and be sure to check yourself after a visit for those terrible little... More
