Beautiful trail with impressive ocean views. Moderate hike with challenging sections of at-times slippery downhills and somewhat steep uphills. Parts of the trails stay above the ocean or you can take them all the way down to the rocky beach where the surf sounds are therapeutic. Not too heavily trafficked at 7:30a when I went. Some visible animal life and birds.
