Shelter Cove Beach is great for boaters and fishermen, while Dead Man’s Beach is a popular surfing spot in spring and fall.

For a more family-friendly day at the beach, head to Seal Rock Picnic Area, located just minutes from our Shelter Cove vacation rentals. It’s a great spot for wildlife watching for sea lions and harbor seals. Gray whales may even make an appearance near shore as they’re migrating in January and February or April and May.
