During the “Juvenile Haul-out”, the Wildlife Viewing Area is open for self-guided hiking by Visitor Permit only. Obtain your free Visitor Permit daily from the entrance station, between 8:30 am and 3:30 p.m. Please plan to arrive early enough to obtain a permit. These popular three-to-four mile hikes are considered moderate with varied terrain including sand dunes. Most groups require about two and a half to three hours to make the round-trip hike.

No reservations are required and no Guided Walks are offered.

Visitors must exit the area by 5 p.m.
