We hiked (walked) out here mid afternoon and it was very pleasant and easy. You can pick between several different distances for a total round trip and get some decent views along the way. Not too crowded especially once you get a few minutes in. Seems like most people start turning around pretty early!

Once you get to lighthouse, if you keep going, the rest of the trains (more or less) are around local driving roads so you won't have many good views for the...
