Roque Bluffs State Park — Attraction in Roque Bluffs

Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! The last time I was here I did the trails. They're a fun hike that isn't too difficult and there are benches periodically spread out through the trails. There's one area where you go up (or down) a very steep hill, so if you have balance issues, weak knees or ankles, I recommend bringing trekking poles. From this trail, there is an abandoned boat and a barge you can view. You can get to them eventually by continuing along the trail, eventually taking a left onto an unofficial trail, and then bushwhacking. Beware, the beach there sitting on is very muddy, so be prepared to get your feet wet or to view from the edge of the woods.

The rest of the park really speaks for itself. Gorgeous ocean views, thundering sounds of waves even on a calm day, view of islands off in the distance, the sound of gulls, smell of salt, a breeze (or more sometimes), and all around pleasant and calming to be at.

There needs to be a few tables that have a roof over them. It was very hot. I also saw just in the first 20 minutes 6 cars come and not pay any fees. There needs to be someone collecting the fees on the weekends. The outhouses wee clean, and the signage was good. Very clean too. I understand about dogs but mine is small in a carrier. I did see someone who took a dog on a leash on the beach even though the...

Love this beach as it is close by an easily accessed. It's a mix of rocks and sand which gives it more character than a plain old white sandy beach. The beach changes with every storm. There may be more rocks or seaweed washed up but I still love it. You can find many different formations of rocks if you are a rock collector. Across the street is a parking area open on Memorial Day through the summer. You can swim in the pond and there are picnic tables and Facilities. There is also...
