Westward Beach-Point Dume
Westward Beach-Point Dume Review
Go tide-pooling, fishing, snorkeling, or bird-watching (prime time is late winter-early spring). Hike to the top of the sandstone cliffs to whale-watch—their migrations can be seen between December and April. Westward is a favorite surfing beach, but the steep surf isn't for novices. Bring your own food, since the nearest concession is a longish hike away.
