Tips from locals
Big Beach is directly across the road and great for picnics, exploring tidepools, and having a beach fire in the evening. You can also access a section of the Wild Pacific Trail from the beach.
Check out Big Beach at sunset. To get there, you walk one block south on Peninsula Road, then take a right on Matterson Drive, and follow it to the end. It's about an 8 minute walk.
Next to the covered picnic area you'll find interpretive signs along with a large slice of an old-growth cedar tree. The rings have been marked with corresponding historical events. This tree has witnessed some pretty amazing stuff!
