| partners | | We got started a little later than intended for this one as one in our party wasn’t feeling well. Thankfully, she bounced back and we all got to go! Woohoo! We arrived around 9 or 9:30 and were probably the last 2 vehicles that would fit in the lot. You either pay $5 or use your America the beautiful pass for this one.
The hike in was ROUGH for me given the temps (approx 100 at start), hiking in sand & very exposed. I got overheated halfway to the falls but was able to dip in the creek and cooled down immediately. We pressed on and soon after arrived at the falls.
It was busy, but it didn’t feel overwhelming at all. The falls are loud and there are several areas along the beach where your group can have its own space. The water was SO cold but super refreshing. We took pics and enjoyed snacks before hiking out.
We took advantage of cloud pockets for the way out and it didn’t feel AS bad! Alas we were all happy to be finished & back in the AC! I don’t love touristy destinations but I’m glad I got to see these falls! |
