It's just a view point on the way.

There is a little space to pull over your car and walk down the stairs to view the seal lions below on the rocks. It's too far away for a clear view with naked eyes. I could see only 2 sea lions with a binocular. There is a bench to spend some time admiring the view. But I didn't see any trail going down. Maybe it was temporarily closed.

You can take a chance here, but overall not very impressive for...

A hidden gem along Point Reyes’ rugged coastline, Sea Lion Overlook offers breathtaking ocean views and a chance to spot harbor seals, sea lions, and migrating whales (seasonally).

It's a beautiful, up hill hike to see the sea lions. There are no fences to protect you from the steep cliff above the sea lions. Wear comfortable shoes, bring snacks and drinks. There isn't any places to buy food or drinks in the park.
