Playground for kids and hiking trails abound. Lots to do - even watch kids playing softball. If you like to get up early in the AM before 7 AM, you can venture on the rim hiking trail and potentially see a coyote. Coyotes do not hurt humans, but if you have a small dog, please keep a careful eye on your dog. Coyotes have been known to attack very small dogs.

Amazing views and a lovely bridge to the tiny island with the lighthouse. Well worth the visit. Also stop by the Marine Mammal Center close by.
