It largely depends on the weather. I've been there in the winter when the parking lot was full, and I've been in the summer when there are only a handful of people. If the weather is nice (especially if it's warmer), chances are there will be quite a few people there, but you at least won't see as many people in March or November as you will later in the year.

Thanks, looking for rainy/foggy weather specifically so that's good to know!

Go to second beach or Shi Shi, one of the ones you have to hike into. Those will be a ghost town most of the year until the sun makes its yearly 3 month appearance

I'm kind of considering it for my fiance and i to have a very small elopement/handfasting ceremony. are second beach or shi shi long hikes?

Second beach is only about a mile from each way I believe. It’s got a pretty steep hill tho on the backside when heading down to the beach, so if you’re bringing anything in for your elopement, keep that in mind. Shi Shi is a 3 mile hike through the woods one way, so I don’t recommend that one. You might also consider first beach as well. You can park in the lot and just walk right to the beach. Same thing with Kalaloch beach

Thanks! I’m hoping for some nice rocky views and some trees, so I’ll take a look. I appreciate the suggestions.

Wear rain gear, dress warm, and stay the fuck away from drift logs.
