Hawk Creek Cave

04/09/18

We have been visiting this specific beautiful place for about 3 years now. I was curious about the caves but unsure about exploring on my own until I read this submission. I agree it’s a little confusing as there are some caves visible when you enter to the trailhead and I do not believe these are the caves she wrote about. I hiked to the visible caves with my 8 year old daughter yesterday, just sort of following random game trails and making our own way. For that, we took the Hawk Creek trail until it ends (just when you get above the beach). There is a small canyon with a wide and visible game trail that looks right up to a large cave. I would recommend doing this in the springtime as the grass becomes very tall here in the summer. There may be another way to get to these (there are two caves) but this route worked well for us and was fairly easy. As for the other caves we have not made our way down the beach quite so far so I’m unsure about those until our next visit! It’s a beautiful area no matter where you end up! It’s also wonderful to SUP through in summertime when the water is a bit higher.
