New Year Beach Walk: DISCOVER Pt Whitehorn Nature Reserve

NOTE: This is a super low tide and perfect moonlight walk ...I will confirm permission from the county parks department prior to the event date. Bring a flashlight to find your way!

Spring Beach Walks will be daytime April 17th and May 15th for the best low spring tides.

Directions to Location: Take Grrandview Exit 266 and go West off I-5. Grandview RD crosses Holeman Avenue and becomes Koehn RD, makes a 90 degree turn. Where the Koehn public road ends, there is a parking lot on the left with sign. It's not obvious because it's a new county park.

Enjoy the amazing 3/4 mile trail through forest wetlands to the majestic pebbled beach of Pt Whitehorn. This new marine reserve was a partnership of Whatcom County and the Whatcom Land Trust and as a sanctuary, no pets are allowed. You will hear and see birds and wonderful flora fauna along the way. Easy flat trail with steep incline to the beach at the end.

Bring a thermos or drink to share and some nibbles. We'll park on a log and soak up the night air sound of waves splashing to distant fireworks from north and south.
