Explore Ruby Beach
If you’re looking for a mellow day at the beach, this is a great spot! There’s an easy path from the parking area down to the beach that’s less than 0.25 miles, so it’s not too difficult to the things you may want or need. Just north of the parking area, there’s a series of tide pools to explore. If you’re really excited about checking out the sea life, be sure to come during lower tides as mor...

Give yourself time too, because you'll want to pull over. Getting to the trail head is really half the fun.Once you're there, ...

Continue to meander again through the forest before descending back down to a little cove of Taylor Point.
