Reviews
"We visited Lopez Island in the of September. It was also a base for exploring Orcas Island. Shark Reef Nature Trail was one of the first things we saw on Lopez Island and we absolutely fell in love with it. Starts as boardwalk, continues on a forest trail and eventually you are at this scenic point where you see San Juan Island's lighthouse, seals on a tiny islands and other stunning nature's scenery. We had to come back just before leaving the Islands and returning on a mainland. Unfortunately I has a small accident then when I fell and twisted my ankle. But that's no reason why we shouldn't come back in the future."
"My favorite spot on Lopez Island! 1/2 mile hike in and we were able to explore the sweet little beach and the tide pools. So picturesque and magical. If you go to the far end you can see seals across the way on the little rock island."
"We did a bike tour of Lopez Island and stopped off at many wonderful locations. One place I definitely recommend is shark reef nature trail. This is an easy trail that starts off as a man-made wooden platform trail that transitions into simple switchback through lush forest land and ends in scenic vistas over a bay. There are many little islands where seals are climbing around."
"I love this little spot. This half mile trail leads to amazing cliff views of Shark Reef where you'll see seals basking on rocks. You can and should climb down to the rocks that hug the shore to have a nice peaceful sit-down and hear the water quietly lapping at the rocks. This is a hidden gem amongst all the sites of all the San Juan Islands."
"If you would like a low traffic and highly scenic trail this is the one for you! There is a smallish parking lot with a small sign at the entrance. The trail has a bit of a boardwalk and then can get a little muddy depending on the season, early spring is when I encountered this. Once you get to the actual Coast the views are spectacular! We saw sea lions just basking on the rocks about 50 ft from us. You can set up a hammock and just enjoy the sound of nature and the water. Beware that they are strong currents. Also the end of the trail is private property do not go past this. Enjoy!"
