TAKE TIME TO DISCOVER
Islands, headlands & ocean life
Offshore rocks and selected mainland areas protect a rich coastal environment. Public mainland viewing places offer the most straightforward way to enjoy scenery without disturbing wildlife.

Before you go
Do not land on wildlife rocks or assume all coastline is monument land. Check local access, tides and sensitive-area guidance.
Give the place time
Choose a manageable walk, viewpoint or tour, and allow time for interpretation. Gateway areas help orient the visit; they are not exact entrance directions.
Make the details easy
Confirm the specific facilities, walking surfaces and vehicle access your group needs. Tours, transport and special access may require separate arrangements.
Check the official source for current access, hours, fees, reservations, permits and alerts. Photos may show earlier conditions. Suggested highlights are visit ideas, not a guarantee that every area is currently open.
