    Loved this spot
    Spent a week on Prince of Wales Island, traveled around a lot and this place was beautiful. Great photo ops. Wish we could have spent more time here, picnic area was being re-done, it should be nice when it’s finished.

    No Orcas but ok for beachcombing
    We stopped here on our way to Thorne Bay in hopes of seeing some interesting marine life but came up short. Still a nice place for a picnic and beachcombing. There are also campsites and a picnic shelter. Seems a bit remote as there are no services here. Access is via a gravel road which was a bit rough in places.
