Parks & Nature
Magical walk through the rainforest down to an undeveloped beach. Look for nurse logs and the endangered marbled murrelet. Walk out to Cape Falcon to look for whales during the grey whale migration or enjoy the tidepools and a walk on the beach. If it's raining you'll get the place to yourself and it's even more green and magical. Go regardless of the weather!
