A boardwalk trail makes a one mile loop as it travels over ancient sand dunes and through 90 acres of sensitive habitat that protects 200 species of plants, 110 different
birds, 22 kinds of mammals, and 13 species of reptiles and
amphibians. Live oaks, between 200 and 400 years old, are twisted and stunted by the salt spray, and constant winds. A few interpretive signs give details about the Native Americans who lived in the area. Trail guides are available at the trail head or download one here: trail guide The trail is accessible however there's a very steep section between stop # 15 and stop # 19. Wheelchair users will need assistance. The uphill grades will be longer but less steep if the trail is taken counter clock wise. The boardwalk is accessed by spur trails at the end of neighborhood streets. All are sandy except for the 16th Street spur which is boardwalk. There's an accessible parking space where short RVs will fit. There may be parking spaces for longer RVs along the streets but take care to not block driveways Forest 35.3318, -120.8256
