Hike to Sculptured Beach, Point Reyes National Seashore, California
Sculptured Beach is located two miles south of Limantour Beach. Winter rains feed two creeks which stream across the sand into the ocean creating a wet barrier for beach walkers wishing to keep their feet dry.
Distances:
From the Limantour Beach parking lot: 5.4 miles (8.6 km) roundtrip, easy
From the Laguna Trailhead: 6.6 miles (10.6 km) roundtrip, easy/moderate
From the Coast Trailhead: 8.6 miles (13.8 km) roundtrip, easy
From the Limantour Beach parking lot, walk about 440 yards (400 meters) to the beach, turn left and walk southeast on the beach. The routes described below pass through or by Coast Campground, where you can refill your water bottle at one of the campgrounds water faucets, or use the vault toilets.
Sculptured Beach begins where the beach changes from sandy to partly rocky. Once at Sculptured Beach, look for its namesake rocks lying on the shoreline. The sculptured rocks are exposed at low tide, along with the organisms that cling to them, creating an exciting area to go tidepooling.
